Can’t be from a Boeing, since the problem seems to be it didn’t catch fire and burn up.

Good thing it didn’t crash into a house, nearly killing an outcast teenager who got up at the last second and missed it, causing a weird disturbance in space-time until he traveled back and let the thing kill him.

Because that didn’t go so well last time.
