UFO, Meteor, Or Elon? Bright Orange Light In Temple, Texas Sky Is A Mystery
Space is full of mysteries waiting to be solved. For instance, what's the story behind the weird orange light in the sky over Temple, Texas that appeared Monday night?
The light is causing multiple theories to pop up on local social media about what it could be, but we still don't have a definitive answer yet.
The Light Was Captured On Video
According to KCEN-TV, a Temple woman caught the light on camera, and has her own speculations. Michelle Warwick says, "You could see like fire flickering and so it moved to the right, and then just stopped paths and kind of bursts like into three and just disappeared."
Take a look at the video and see what you think:
This Is Not A New Thing For Central Texas
Over the last several months, some weird sightings have made the news in Texas, including one from Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield.
Last year in March, Mayfield posted on Twitter that he and his wife saw a UFO over Lake Travis in Austin (or at least what he suspected was an alien spacecraft, anyway).
According to KXAN, the responses to his social media post didn't provide any real answers.
Recent Geminid Meteor Showers
We just had a meteor light show a few weeks ago, courtesy of the Geminids that show up every December. Most meteor showers come from comets, but the Geminids originate from a rocky asteroid.

One Mystery Was Solved
In April of 2021, a mysterious string of reported white lights in the North Texas sky turned out to be Elon Musk’s Starlink.
On SpaceX’s 10th mission in 2021, 60 interconnected satellites were sent into space in April. Starlink is designed to deliver high-speed internet to consumers all over the world.
