"Shocking Footage Captures Chinese Rocket Booster's Explosive Descent Near Homes"

TL;DR Summary
Debris from a Chinese satellite's Long March 3B rocket caused alarm as it fell near residential areas in Beijing. The rocket had successfully launched two satellites for the Beidou Navigation System but its side boosters detached and landed in Guangxi, with social media videos capturing the descent and subsequent explosion. No injuries or property damage were reported, but the incident raised concerns about the safety and environmental impact of China's space program, particularly the use of toxic propellants. Despite these concerns, China continues to frequently launch satellites, having set a new record in the previous year.
