Many residents across the state reported seeing strange lights in the sky Saturday night.

These lights were likely debris from a Starlink telecommunications satellite re-entering the atmosphere.

SpaceX, which launches Starlink satellites to provide high-speed internet around the world, has had multiple recent launches.

On Thursday, a Falcon 9 rocket sent 23 Starlink satellites into orbit from Cape Canaveral, and another 23 were launched just before Halloween.
