more junk>> On April 2, an explosion was seen in the California sky. While some assumed the fiery display was from a Space X rocket that launched just hours prior, aerospace researchers claim the object was actually the Shenzhou-15 rocket that China launched nearly a year and a half ago.

On Nov. 29, 2022, China's Shenzhou-15 rocket blasted off with three astronauts on board. The rocket was made up of multiple modules, and the one carrying the astronauts landed safely in China in June 2023. DailyMail.com reports that the 3,300-pound orbital module — the one that exploded over Los Angeles at 1:40 a.m. — was "not designed to safely reenter Earth's atmosphere."

Debris has not been discovered in California, but it's believed that space junk either burnt out in the upper atmosphere or landed in the Pacific Ocean.
