A Chinese rocket booster plummeted back to Earth early Friday morning, falling into the Pacific Ocean, according to tweets from the United States Space Command.
The U.S. Space Command reported that the debris from the Long March 5B rocket re-entered Earth's atmosphere over the south-central Pacific Ocean at 4:01 a.m. MDT.
In response, Spain briefly closed the airspace over Catalonia and three other regions, causing hundreds of flight delays.
