Greetings,
NASA's UARS (Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite) will be falling back to Earth. Most of it will burn up in the atmosphere upon re-entry.; some will not. It may be visible to those under it's path; however, the precise path and timing has yet to be determined.by NASA.

Since UARS orbits over the VIs at times (see video), I thought our space enthusiasts may be interested in this article.
Happy skywatching!
Swan
