Interesting debris to rain down in 2 to 4 years

Interesting debris to rain down in 2 to 4 years...There is 2.9 tons of space junk ejected from the ISS (new record) that will rain down or rather supposedly burn up as it passes through our atmosphere.  :roll:

What is this space junk?... a bunch of nickel-hydrogen batteries. Article posted by Accuweather!
