How is Australia reacting to the news that the Mir space station is off the projected course of its deorbit and might land either on the Australian mainland or in the ocean near the coast, causing tidal waves?

I guess there's not much we can do but hope that it doesn't cause too much trouble when it lands!
Humans - It's not enough that we pollute our own planet, we pollute the surrounding universe with space junk which can have a tendency to fall back on us :rolleyes:

Nah, SS11. Maybe MIR should take a detour from Victoria Park and fall on your head, specifically on the section that controls humour, so then you might be able to learn to take a joke.
