I was driving home around 9:30-9:45 pm. All of a sudden this flaming ball was falling at an extremely fast speed from the sky. I thought maybe a meteor or something, then it split into 2 flaming balls. They had a tail from the flames. They were headed towards an airport tower near John Wayne airport. I wondered if maybe a plane exploded and was crashing. But then when they got near the tower the flames went away and they slowed then came to a stop. I was still driving so I couldn't get a photo, then as I got around a building that blocked them they were gone.



NUFORC Note:

Chinese rocket re-entry. PD
