It did ... ran into air and fell right down out of orbit. Whatever was left of it ...

by the time it was finished burning up and reached the surface ... apparently

fell into a region of the Pacific Ocean where radar coverage is sparse, so tracking

was lost as it fell through the atmosphere, and there's a lot of uncertainty about

exactly where it went into the drink.

There have been hundreds of satellites that have "de-orbited" and fallen to Earth.

They just haven't been played up in the news the way this one was.

Why can a satellite orbit above the moon at 5km and not the earth?

At 5km up the Satellite would still be in the earths atmosphere and would also be subject to gravity. Put simply it would just fall back down. Space starts at about 100km up or 62 miles. The moon also has 1/6ths of Earths gravity and at 5km up there would be little if any pull from the moon.
