Mystery lights were visible Thursday night over the Pacific Northwest:

Was it a meteor? An invasion of space aliens? Trump's Space Force?

Nah. It was just some space debris falling from a rocket launch:

"The widely reported bright objects in the sky were the debris from a Falcon 9 rocket 2nd stage that did not successfully have a deorbit burn," wrote the National Weather Service in Seattle.

NWS was referring to a tweet from Jonathan McDowell, astrophysicist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, who stated that the lights were actually falling debris from a rocket reentering Earth's atmosphere.

Despite this, Margarine Taylor Greene said she was vindicated and that it was proof of giant Jewish space lasers.
