“It looks exactly like the space shuttle colombiawhen burned on reentry”, referring to the 2003 accident in which the spacecraft disintegrated while reentering the atmosphere over Texas and Louisiana, killing all seven astronauts on board.
See the 2003 accident log:
The picture is scary, but, second Jonathan McDowellastronomer of Harvard Astrophysics Center, shouldn’t cause alarm. After all, the light trails are most likely right space rejection burning up as it returns to Earth’s atmosphere.

An alien spacecraft may have visited the solar system, Pentagon chief says
extraterrestrial ships they may have approached planet Earth, released several probes into space, and left. This would be a similar browsing method to NASA in the study of other planets.
That’s what Sean Kirkpatrick, director of the Pentagon’s All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), and Abraham Loeb, chair of Harvard University’s astronomy department, said last week. Their paper will still be peer reviewed.
In the text, the experts say that the process of releasing the probes can be compared to the dandelion plant. This one releases several floating seeds when hit with a breath weapon. Therefore, astronomers would not be able to record the phenomenon.
“An artificial interstellar object could potentially be a mothership that releases many small probes as it passes Earth, an operational construct not unlike NASA missions,” the paper reads.
