It had been predicted that the remains of the rocket would fly directly over the main island of Okinawa or slightly north.ĭaichi Fujii, a curator at Hiratsuka City Museum in Kanagawa Prefecture, was cited by Nippon TV News as saying the phenomenon was caused by the burning wreckage of a Long March 3B launch vehicle that had lifted off in November 2022.Īs for why the wreckage of the rocket launched last year did not fall until this year, Fujii said that after the launch of the satellite, the rocket would have been drifting in space, but it would slowly roll out of its orbit and eventually fall back to earth.įireball seen in New Taipei.
Hsieh Hsiang-yu (謝翔宇), a research team technician at the Taipei Astronomical Museum, was cited by TTV News as saying, "The incident last night lasted up to two minutes, and it was more than likely a man-made object falling from outer space, which is commonly known as 'space junk.'" Hsieh said that as the visible range was wide, the object was likely at a high altitude.Īt the same time, people in Japan's Okinawa Prefecture saw the object even more clearly, flying from west to east for about one minute.Īstronomers from Japan's Ishigaki Island Observatory were cited by NHK as saying that a Long March 3B rocket launched by China in November 2022 was projected to enter the atmosphere on Wednesday evening.

The defense ministry said that its preliminary judgment is the object was the space wreckage of a rocket launched by China.Īstronomers at Lulin Observatory told PTS News that based on the slow speed of the object's flight and low orbit, they believe that it was a man-made object.
