- elil17 8y agoWe have other ways to determine the nature of a falling object. Much can be assertained from its trajectory, deceleration, and luminance. It’s trivial to determine that this was not a reentry vehicle.
- craftyguy 8y agoExactly. If that was a vehicle/projectile, even watching the dashcam videos of it, it's quite obvious that parts of it underwent rapid, unplanned desintegration. So it likely would't have done anything significant if it was (it was not.)
