Space debris
According to astronomer Jonathan McDowell, these mysterious streaks of light are actually space debris that heated up and started burning as they entered the atmosphere at high speeds, he explained to the American press. Associated Press.
The astronomer also shared that “a Japanese communications device that sent information from the International Space Station to a communications satellite, which was then sent back to Earth, became obsolete when the satellite crashed in 2017.”
“The equipment, weighing 310 kilograms, was ejected from the space station in 2020 as it took up space and would burn up completely upon re-entry into the atmosphere,” he added.
