Florida viewers report 'fireball' seen in sky overhead

Tonight people all over Florida are talking about what lit up the skies before dawn Thursday morning. Take a look at this video from News 6 viewer Damian Eisenhower. So they spotted it while driving to work. This was in Port Orange and he asked us, what is this thing? Turns out it was probably some space junk, but not from last night's launch. An astronomer tweeted he's been tracking parts from a Chinese rocket and predicted it would burn up over Florida. About the same time people started to see those lights. So we don't know for sure, that is our best guess.

Space junk lighting up.
