some have already fallen down to earth, lucky in unpopulated areas and the military/governments are able to get to them quickly so they dont really get reported on.

But eventually one will hit a densely populated area...its going to be a disaster.

that's the geostationary zone, it's the height at which satellites will spin at the same speed as earth, and thus maintain a fixed position. they're used for communication services like phone calls, television and the likes.
