Fireball streaking across US sky was Russian rocket debris
A bright light caught the attention of people outdoors around 6:15 Tuesday night. A Plane? Superman? Was Independence Day real after all?

U.S. Strategic Command spokesperson Julie Ziegenhorn said an SL-4 rocket-body booster from Russian Federation was launched Monday.
Sometimes the truth isn’t stranger than fiction.
But the U.S. Strategic Command put all the speculation to rest, saying the fireball across the skies of the southwestern United States was a bit of Russian space junk.
Newfoundlanders in Canada took to social media last week to report another “mysterious fireball” streaking across the sky. Dr. Ed Krupp, an astronomer and the director of the Griffith Observatory, earlier said the object was possibly a meteor or space debris.
Russian space debris was spotted over Southern California and Nevada Tuesday evening, taking social media by storm. Some people also expressed distrust about the USA government’s comments on the rocket.
