On November 28, 2017, Russian Soyuz-2.1b space rocket launched from the Vostochny spaceport – Russia’s newest and world’s most expensive spaceport – burned in the atmosphere together with 19 satellites that it attempted to deliver into space. 

The original video was posted on the twitter account @thatjetsetgirl, however the original poster is on IG @sussexinscouse who is a first officer at British Airways who caught this on camera whilst flying over the North Atlantic. He also made note of the aircrafts exact location, and those coordinates match the path of the satellite falling. Credit goes to Dave on this video, which is probably one of the best videos that has made it easy around that captures what happened.

Some specialists assume the crash was due to incorrect blessing of the rocket by the careless Russian orthodox bishop Lukian, who blessed the rocket without wearing appropriate uniform.
