Not completely sure, but this launch is/was scheduled for today.
In the early morning of February 19, 2025, at approximately 4:49 AM CET, a bright streak of light with multiple burning fragments was observed in the sky over Berlin. The event displayed characteristics consistent with the atmospheric re-entry of space debris, rather than a natural meteor.
Eyewitness accounts described the object moving from east to west, breaking apart as it traveled. This slow-moving fragmentation is a well-documented feature of space debris re-entry. Supporting this, data from Orbital Focus indicated that several Starlink satellites, including STARLINK-1581, STARLINK-2372, and STARLINK-5063, were predicted to re-enter Earth’s atmosphere around this timeframe. Their expected decay dates, spanning from February 17 to February 19, 2025, align with the observed event.
While meteors, particularly fireballs, can also create bright streaks, they typically move faster and do not fragment in the same way. Given the available data, the event was most likely caused by the controlled or uncontrolled re-entry of a defunct satellite or other space debris.
I saw that today near Kassel. I wondered what it was.
Is this Elon Musk trying to dump his garbage over Berlin in North Korean style?
Ive seen it too
All starlink satellites will eventually re-enter. What nobody is talking about is the fact that all the aluminum burning up is killing the ozone layer.
Ich habe das selbe in Bielefeld gesehen ca halb 5
Uhh should I postpone my germany study plans or?
Musk is here, and it will be Creepy

Space Junk, most likely second stage of a Falcon9 that was scheduled.
Was it around 4:45 AM in central Germany? Based from the pictures, it looks like it’s the same event.

What is that?
Starlink ?
That’s Musk’s stuff.

Here is the answer: [https://dubisthalle.de/der-himmel-brennt-meteoritenschauer-ueber-halle-saale-sichtbar](https://dubisthalle.de/der-himmel-brennt-meteoritenschauer-ueber-halle-saale-sichtbar)
Would be funny if China was taking down Star Link satellites.
Elon is just mad about Berghain and is replying back by launching his kidney stones over Berlin
das gleiche um 4:30 über Hamburg.
After the smashing hit Battle:LA, now wait for the sequel Battle:Berlin
Probably neither a bird, nor a plane, so superman?
I saw it in Cologne.
It was Elon coming back from space!
