Reentry of a rogue second stage booster for one of Elon Musk's SpaceX Falcon 9 rockets.

Launched on March 4th, this booster failed to make its de-orbit burn, so it floated around in orbit for 22 days before finally falling back into the atmosphere, half-full of fuel. It unexpectedly reentered Earth's atmosphere at exactly 2100 PDT (0400 UTC 3/25) and passed directly over Portland, Oregon.

This is the view from my East facing camera, as seen from Milwaukie, Oregon.
