On Thursday evening on November 20th, a fireball streaked across the sky in Louisiana over the city of New Orleans. Some have speculated that it is the lost tool bag from the International Space Station. Not hardly, as the tool bag is slowly spinning away from the space station. It will be carried by its inertia away from the station at a constant rate, until the earth's gravity gains the upper hand, probably in a year or two.
The fireball over New Orleans was visible by many in the early evening, and even the Air Traffic Control Tower made note of its passing.
