The FAA says SpaceX is trying to determine if the debris found in Poland belonged to the Falcon 9 rocket's upper stage.

Jasny, płonący obiekt przeleciał nad Polską. To prawie na pewno szczątki drugiego stopnia rakiety Falcon 9, która została wystrzelona z bazy sił powietrznych Vandenberg w Kalifornii i wynosiła na orbitę 22 satelity Starlink z grupy 11-4.

Upon arriving at his warehouse in the quaint Polish village of Komorniki, Adam Burucki discovered that a massive chunk of charred rocket debris had crash-landed on his property.

Poland said on Saturday it has been paying for Ukraine's Starlink subscription and will continue to do so despite sources saying the United States could consider cutting Ukraine's access to the satellite internet system.

A SpaceX rocket stage fell to Earth early Wednesday morning (Feb. 19), blazing a trail of fire through European skies.

Two space debris-related events that occurred this week point to how routine rocket launches can leave their mark on Earth.

Poland has delivered 20,000 Starlink units to Ukraine since Russia's invasion in February 2022, and has been funding their maintenance to support internet connectivity, according to information on the Polish presidency's website.
