>I wonder what caused  it to go back into space?Any thoughts?

Based on its trajectory, it only  flew through the atmosphere like a fly 
buzzing the face.  Right around when  it got a good look at Chicago to its right 
side, it decided to skip the heck out  of there since it still had enough 
energy and wasn't committed around 50 miles  high. (seriously, it did)  It then 
took thirty years to come back with the  PF reinforcements.
