Is there any way to find out about recent satelites breaking up in the atmosphere?

Today (17:47, Erlangen, Germany) I saw something bright wiz across the sky and the visibly split into brighter pieces before disappearing. The weird thing is that the the sky seemed overcast (it was dark so I wasn't sure, but there were no stars). Is there any way I could find out what it was? I don't suppose some agency tracks shooting stars and the like, but I might have more luck with satelites.
