seems it disintegrated before it hits the ground anyway, probably just space junk, that stuff falls to earth all the time but breaks up before it hits anything.

Here is a video of it: http://www.truthed.com/videos/444_my...over_texas.htm
Also i guess there is speculation (according to the video) that it could be a piece from the satellites that collided! 2 Orbiting Satellites Collide 500 Miles Up |

It's either a piece from the satellites, which is entirely possible, or it is a meteor/meteorite. I'd normally opt for my standard "house-sized chunks of ice that regularly falls into the atmosphere", but water doesn't produce fire for some reason.

It does look like a bolide or other type of meteor. They are saying it is not part of the satellites that collided recently.
