Looking out through Felix Baumgartner's capsule.
A space rock, which was shed from a comet heading either to or from the sun, is traveling at tens of thousands of miles an hour. The rock gets caught in the planet's atmosphere. The planet is spinning at 1040 miles an hour. The friction of this encounter causes the rock to flame up (a meteor or shooting star).
Felix wasn't going that fast.
