The fireball was visible to stargazers across at least 12 states across the southern U.S. It was the death knell of a defunct Chinese commercial Earth imaging satellite called Superview 1-02.

Video of the Chinese space junk burning up shows it as several streaks of objects flaring up in the night sky.

The American Meteor Society received at least 120 reports from Texas to Florida .
