The legend says:
> Yellow Line – ground track uncertainty after predicted reentry time (ticks at 5-minute intervals)
> Blue Line – ground track uncertainty prior to predicted reentry time (ticks at 5-minute intervals)
So the rocket could re-enter anywhere along the yellow or blue lines.
- tremon 6y agoThanks, I had completely missed that legend. It was folded by default here (?)
- Denvercoder9 6y agoActually, it can also re-enter outside of the yellow or blue lines. They given an error margin of 24 hours on the predicted reentry time, and the drawn tracks are only 6 hours long.
- Ajedi32 6y agoLooks like it just updated; margin of error was reduced to 22 hours and the drawn tracks now show the full range. I imagine that as the rocket gets closer to reentering the page will continue to be updated with more precise estimates.
