The space shuttle is working hard in space. Whenever it encounters space junk, it will eject a two-dimensional large net to wrap the junk.

These wrapped space junks are affected by the gravitational pull of the earth. began to decline continuously.

When it comes into contact with the atmosphere, due to the high velocity of the space junk, it rubs against the atmosphere violently. Releases a lot of light and heat.

The outer layer of space junk is a two-dimensional large net, which is eroded by high temperature. Gradually it starts to melt.

Wait until this net can no longer wrap the space junk, and the space junk will spread out in the atmosphere. Severe friction with the atmosphere. Form a flame.

Everywhere in the world, they would see a flame erupting in the sky from time to time.

In Paris, France, a couple is looking at the space and counting the stars. Suddenly, a fiery white light flashed across the sky.

"Look, what a bright shooting star. Let's make a wish soon."

Late at night in London, England, astronomer Chris is observing the space with his beloved astronomical telescope.

He suddenly saw a bright light in the astronomical telescope, and Chris immediately cheered up.

In this star field, this kind of strange bright light is very likely to be a supernova explosion. If a picture of a supernova explosion is taken, it is enough for him to brag for a lifetime.

He is very familiar with this star universe, and there is absolutely no luminous artificial satellite passing by now. Based on his simple knowledge, it is very likely that it is naturally produced starlight.

He pointed his telescope at the bright light and saw only an oval of material falling into the atmosphere. The light released by high-speed friction with the atmosphere.

Chris was a little disappointed. Although he couldn't see it clearly, according to his calculations, it was just an ordinary shooting star. Immediately, it felt useless.

For experienced astronomers like him, meteors are a very common astronomical phenomenon.

In particular, extremely tiny meteorites land on the earth, which happens every day, and it is a normal phenomenon in their eyes.

Take a small iron basin at random and put it in the corner of the park, or in an open place such as the roof.

After waiting for a week or two, you can use a magnet to absorb some small black powder from the empty basin.

This is the meteorite formed by some tiny celestial bodies falling to the earth.

But this is a large meteor that is reddened by the friction of the atmosphere and emits a lot of light. Chris hadn't seen it a few times either. Although he was a little disappointed, he still photographed the whole process with the astronomical telescope.

After he saw the meteor burn to a certain extent. Suddenly, the flames scattered. Soon the material burns up in the atmosphere.

Chris felt that this phenomenon was very strange, and he immediately turned to the astronomical telescope to take this picture.

Chris took out his mobile phone and posted the picture he just took with the astronomical telescope on his social media.

"Guys, I've photographed another meteor over London. Probably not massive enough to burn up.

But I found a strange phenomenon, it spreads out after burning to a certain extent, forming a big firework.

This is the most special shooting star I have ever seen. Have you ever seen this kind of shooting star? "

"Chris, you saw it in London. I saw it in Vancouver. A meteor fell into the atmosphere, it spread out quickly, and finally the fire went out."

"New York plus 1."

"Athens plus 2."

"Berlin plus 3."

...

"Vienna plus 56."

Chris was shocked when he saw the reply from its social account. Then carefully ask the person who saw this phenomenon. It was found that the phenomena they saw had common characteristics.

Chris felt that this matter had exceeded his expectations. This was completely beyond the knowledge of an amateur like him.

I thought I just saw a small meteor in my area. I didn't expect this astronomical event to happen all over the world.

Chris immediately came to the world famous astronomy forum. There are astronomy experts here, and they should be able to determine the cause of this phenomenon.

Entering this forum, the hottest posts are discussing this phenomenon.

Most astronomers are night owls in order to observe the starry sky. Although it is already late at night, discussions are still raging on the Internet.

A forum moderator named Idol Copernicus makes a popular thread.

"Discussion on the astronomical wonder fireball."

The post details that a special astronomical phenomenon has been discovered all over the world.

This meteor first enters the atmosphere concentratedly, and after it rubs against the atmosphere, it emits a lot of light and heat.

After a while, the entire meteor suddenly disintegrated and turned into a flame-like light. Through group discussions, we named this astronomical phenomenon a bolide.

They appeared on a large scale this evening, and the reasons for this phenomenon were not at all understood before.

The time and location of appearances are completely random. There are no rules at all.

Chris checked this post for a long time, and he said with some disdain: "I'm still an expert, and my level is about the same as mine. I haven't found the specific reason for the fireball."

Many astronomers are constantly speculating about the cause of fireballs.

Inoue Yasushi said: "I think this is a comet passing near the earth. Comets generally have a loose structure. Its comet tail is affected by the gravity of the earth, and it can completely attract these materials to the earth."

Someone immediately retorted: "This is completely nonsense. Modern astronomical monitoring methods are already very advanced. No comets have been found near the earth recently."

Odis said: "Could it be that a large star disintegrated, and its debris drifted in the universe. Finally, it floated near the earth and fell down under the gravity of the earth."

Someone immediately retorted: "You are completely misleading people. This statement can't explain why it started to burn so well. Suddenly it disperses."

Many astronomers have given many reasons. But none of them can fully explain the astronomical phenomenon of bolides.

Chris sees many astronomers arguing. He also offered his own opinion.

"I found that bolides burn at the same speed, take the same amount of time to disperse. They even glow and heat the same.

Naturally formed things cannot be such a coincidence. I suspect he is a man-made product. Only modern industrialized products can form such a stable bolide phenomenon. "

As soon as Chris's post was posted, he was immediately criticized.

"Boy, you are talking nonsense. Do you know how much it costs a spacecraft to launch now? Tens of thousands of dollars per kilogram.

Even if someone has too much money to burn, he will not let the rocket throw two stones in the sky for fun.

Besides, the largest payload rockets can't carry so many things into space. You are completely whimsical. "

Holding his breath, Chris replied lightly: "We will wait and see."
