Mystery fireballs that lit up the nights sky across three states sparking fears they could be a plane disintegrating or a meteor shower are revealed to be a Chinese rocket breaking up after launch

    Mystery fireballs were spotted across Utah, Nevada and California
    They streaked past the sky as many feared they could be a plane disintegrating or some guessed it was a meteor shower
    The objects were later revealed to be debris from a Chinese rocket launch
    The objects were traveling at about 18,000mph some 50 miles overhead.


The launch, which began a new era in Chinese rocketry, re-entered the atmosphere after a month in low orbit, astronomer Jonathan McDowell, of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, told the Times. 

'Something this big enters in an uncontrolled way probably once a month,' McDowell told the Times. 

'Mostly they fall into the ocean — the Earth is a big place. The chance that you get one at night, over the U.S. at time when people look at the sky — it is relatively low.'

Onlookers were stunned as the flaming objects, which resembled comets, were seen flying over Lone Mountain Park, with other witness also spotting them in southern California and Utah.  

One man who filmed the jaw-dropping spectacle can be heard exclaiming: 'This is unreal. What is that? What is that?

'I don't know what that is. Well obviously it's something entering the atmosphere but I've never seen anything like that before.'

He later described the flying object as 'humongous'.

Shortly after the man posted his video online, people quickly began to form ideas on what the mysterious object could be.

A sensible suggestion was that the fireballs were part of the annual meteor shower Delta Aquarid, which peaks between July 27 and 29.

However, astronomers have said that this was unlikely because the object was not moving at a quick enough speed.

There were also concerns that the flaming streaks were from a plane, however authorities quickly squashed this rumour by saying no aircraft had been reported missing,

Jonathan McDowell, an astronomer at the Harvard-Smithsonian Centre for Astrophysics, said such appearances from space debris were common.
