Suddenly or was it hit by something?
I mean, if you get hit by something, that tends to happen suddenly.
I mean as in intentional targeted hitting
It might have been hit by something. Or it could have had a failure and blown itself up. The history of these buses and some previous observations on this satellite, plus Boeing being involved, makes me inclined to think it blew itself up.

Shouldnt have been blowing that whistle!
It's hard to fall out of the window in space, on account of not being able to fall and not having windows. But Boeing's got rocket scientists working on the problem!
Akshually, the satellite was falling the whole time.
Engineering is busy not building planes....
So, just like the manufacturer.
Anti Satellite weapon, or Boeing+rocketfuel?
