居民发现一颗明亮的火球,可能是来自SpaceX的火箭碎片,被误认为是流星雨。 Residents spotted a bright fireball, likely rocket debris from SpaceX, mistaken for a meteor shower.

周三晚上,西北太平洋的居民看到天空有一颗闪亮的火球,最初被认为是流星雨。 On Wednesday night, residents across the Pacific Northwest saw a bright fireball in the sky, initially thought to be a meteor shower. 然而,专家认为,这很可能是由于火箭碎片重返大气层造成的,可能是由于SpaceX最近发射的火箭碎片。 However, experts suggest it was likely caused by the reentry of rocket debris, possibly from SpaceX's recent launch. 碎片因上层大气中的热和摩擦而燃烧,造成大火的痕迹。 The debris burns up due to heat and friction in the upper atmosphere, creating a fiery trail. 这次活动不是典型的流星雨,但是由于灯光的强度和集聚,它与典型的流星雨相似。 This event was not a typical meteor shower but resembled one due to the intensity and clustering of the lights.
