  According to experts, the object was likely the debris of an Elon Musk SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket which was launched from Florida on Wednesday.

  It was said to be caused by the process of excess rocket fuel being ejected and freezing, then reflecting light back to earth.

  The rocket’s path matches the reported sightings, experts have said.
