A SpaceX rocket launched from Texas in July has been seen off the coast of Christmas Island after crashing into the Indian Ocean.
The rocket’s appearance near the island was not expected, according to the supplied report. It had previously blasted off from Texas before coming down in the Indian Ocean.

The source material does not provide further details about the exact time of the sighting, the condition of the rocket, or whether any recovery operation is under way.
No official response, technical assessment or further explanation for the rocket’s presence off the coast was included in the supplied material.
