McDowell said Saturday in an interview with The Associated Press that he's 99.9% confident the streaks of light were from burning space debris. The flaming bits of wreckage created a “spectacular light show in the sky," McDowell said. The U.S. Space Force confirmed the re-entry path over California for the Inter-Orbit Communication System, and the timing is consistent with what people saw in the sky, he added.
