"It could also be from a collision with something in space, either from outer space or a man-made object already in space," he told Simeon Paterson at the BBC.

I'd guess the former; likely a meteoroid.

There is a ton of junk that humans have left orbiting around up there.

Doubtful, the folks over at NORAD say no. This is a group of people who make it their buisness to watcht his sort of thing. Fuckups happen, espeically when admiting mistakes is hard in your society. I suspect design flaw which caused a boom. This isn't the worst altitude band for this to happen in, but not great either. Collisions in the area of 780km are of greatest concern, this bird flew around 575km up.

It might if the satellite is actually Voltron.

It's Japan. Pretty sure everything is Voltron at some point in the design phase.
