The International Space Station cannot stay in orbit 250 miles above us forever — which is why NASA has shared updated plans outlining when, where and how the huge structure will fall to Earth.
In January 2031, the station — which launched in 2000 and is 356 feet (109 meters) from end to end — will plunge into the waters of Point Nemo, an uninhabited part of the southern Pacific Ocean, where spacecraft and satellites go to die.
