As to what the debri field will be? Well, scientists have not been able to pinpoint the exact location, which they claim will only be possible just a few hours before Impact! The predictions are that it will hit in the vicinity of 57N and 57S of the Equator. Oh b.t.w. this region is also the most populated on the planet #GoFigure. Countries within this potential impact zone should prepare for all emergencies. NASA has also informed the general public that no debris should be held/stored or sold online as they continue to remain the Property of the US Government.
