[styleman333]

Interesting thing in the sky over Texas . Could it be one whats left of one of the satellites that collided?

Wow how impressive, I saw the Texas one on the TV last eve, but the Italian one is amazing too.
Will be interesting to see what they put it down to

Pretty impressive,
Looks like it hit the atmosphere then ricocheted back out into space.

Interesting fireball.. Apparently an earth grazer.
The Italian one caught the trajectory..

No. The video has been studied and all the experts say its travelling too fast to be space junk and was definitely a natural meteor.

Amazing stuff, I would love to see a fireball like that over my place.

It's all the luck of the draw I suppose.
