At first glance it looks to me like part of a rocket booster, but of course I can't see the other end.
Also, a booster or especially something falling from the space station would be burnt, battered and pretty much wrecked by the time it got to the ground, and the impact would leave a mess. So, it probably fell off a ship.

Now that would be funny as f**k. I wonder how many years you'd get for pulling a stunt like that?
