From the video you can tell it's a piece of space junk, because the speed and trajectory is about what you would see from a piece of space junk as it is re entering the atmosphere. I've seen meteors enter before and their trajectories and speed are totally different than what was on the video.
No, it was a spent Chinese rocket booster that was launched on Monday.
