1 in 3200 chance? That seems a little high does it? Like not worryingly high, but just like logically high.

Any debris from the UARS satellite still remains the property of the U.S. government and cannot be sold for profit to collectors or on eBay, they added.

yeah, it seemed kinda high to me but i think it probably has to do with the size and how they expect it to break up. i am guessing many pieces!
