Debris from Blue Origin and SpaceX rockets found in Bahamas and Europe | CNN

78% Informative

A massive chunk of a Blue Origin rocket’s nose cone washed up on the shore of a Bahamian island near a tourist destination.

In Europe , flaming debris from a SpaceX launch vehicle streaked across the German sky, and what appears to be a fuel tank may have landed on a Polish property.

The incidents are unrelated to the SpaceX Starship rocket that exploded midair during a test flight in January .

Part of New Glenn rocket's nose cone appears to have been discarded from its maiden flight on January 16 .

The fairing is designed to shield satellites during launch and break away from the vehicle after it reaches the vacuum of space.

It appears to be what happened before the waves forced a floating piece of the hardware onto the shores of an island.
