Tiangong-1
Quoting CMSEO, the spokesman said that Tiangong-1 re-entered earth atmosphere this morning.
Tiangong-1's burnup is expected to produce an impressive light show wherever it re-enters the atmosphere, complete with fireballs formed by the station's various sections.
"It's normal for spacecraft to re-enter the atmosphere, yet Tiangong-1 received so much attention partly because some Western countries are trying to hype and sling mud at China's fast-growing aerospace industry", it said.
The manned space office said the main structure will burn up from the heat and friction.
Space officials had warned that knowing the exact location of the re-entry would not be possible until shortly before it happened.
The European Space Agency had indicated earlier that the Tiangong-1 was likely to break up over water, which covers most of the planet's surface.
The unmanned space lab was launched in September 2011 as a prototype for China's ultimate space goal: a permanent space station that is expected to launch around 2022.
It described the probability of someone being hit by a piece of debris from Tiangong-1 as "10 million times smaller than the yearly chance of being hit by lightning".

Police, who were on the other side of a chain-link fence and so not threatened, shouted at Hughes to drop the knife. A trial judge initially threw out the lawsuit, concluding the officer's use of force was reasonable.
"In 60 years of space exploration, only one person - an American woman named Lottie Williams - is known to have been struck by falling space junk, says Ailor, 'and it was just like a piece of fabric material that kind of brushed her on the shoulder'".
During its brief lifespan, it hosted Chinese astronauts on several occasions as they performed experiments and even taught a class that was broadcast into schools across the country.
But the Chinese government told the United Nations in May 2017 their space lab had "ceased functioning" in March 2016, without saying exactly why.
It was a fiery end to what was once one of China's highest-profile space projects.
In contrast, Russian Federation brought down its massive Mir space station through a controlled re-entry over the Pacific Ocean in 2001.
However a Chinese spaceflight engineer denied earlier this year that the lab was out of control. The truth was revealed a couple of months later: control had been lost.
A model of the Tiangong-1 space lab module (L), the Shenzhou-9 manned spacecraft (R) and three Chinese astronauts is displayed during a news conference at Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, in Gansu province, China.
A mission to land another rover on Mars and bring back samples is set to launch in 2020, while China also plans to become the first country to soft-land a probe on the far side of the moon.
