The NBC Bay Area newsroom received a lot of calls about some mysterious lights seen in the sky Friday night in parts of the Bay Area.

The lights were seen in several cities including San Jose, Petaluma and Santa Rosa.

Meteorologist Rob Mayeda tweeted that astronomers believe it is space junk.

NBC Bay Area reached out to NASA Friday night for more information on where that space junk might be coming from.

The Bay Area was treated to a different light show two weeks ago when a meteor was spotted racing across the sky.
