Aliens have returned to bring us more advanced technology that will aid us in a continuing cycle of de-evolving as seen in the latest Tweets from today’s youths...

I vote for

"a meteorite breaking apart in the atmosphere."

It looks awfully fake to me, especially the “thing” ejected.

Not saying aliens, but that piece that broke off and not only went up, but back defies gravitational physics. Also it looks way to I slow for a meteor. Reminds me of the shuttle that was destroyed in re-entry. I’m betting a spacecraft no one is talking about that had a problem.

Not saying it looks like a meteor, but it looks like a meteor.

Because of the height difference between the object(s) and the camera, it’s impossible to tell whether the “escape pod” went up, backward, toward or away.

I didn’t see the escape pod change direction in mid-air once it “escaped”. Could easily be a meteor that lost a piece of itself due to extreme heat of re-entry.

However, others have said it is more likely to have been a meteorite breaking apart in the atmosphere.

And when it broke apart, the shape of one piece caught the air differently, causing it to be deflected to another trajectory.

Or it was an escape pod. I'm not sayin' it was aliens, but...

Bolide meteor.

Bright light bouncing around inside the camera lens.

Just reflection.

What is really cool is when you are looking through your telescope and one of these comes in straight at you. Quite a surprise!

Object is reentering atmosphere at a shallow angle and rotating as it cartwheels in upper layer of atmosphere. There is not a lot of any sign of debris coming off and appears more controlled than uncontrolled as in ablative material designed to reduce speed and keep heat away from what ever it is. Could have been an aircraft departing controlled flight at hypersonic speed. No sound or sonic boom, but in the audio you can hear two small and distant muffled explosions, simultaneously see the object depart at near 90 degrees outbound, hear the two explosions again louder because of the distance separation and the speed of sound. The sound could also be a double sound barrier wave the same that is heard when the space shuttle scrubs off speed in its final turn into Edwards AFB coming out of Mach 10 and before going subsonic. This does not appear to be a meteorite the way the second object separates glowing and without a contrail or burn trail of its own as it goes in the opposite direction. Very interesting video and does not appear to be faked.
