Case description
On 13 June 2011 after 23:00, a witness at home in Annecy-le-Vieux (74) saw a light move rapidly on an apparently descending path, fade and disappear behind a cloud. No particular sound was heard.
ISS passage data and its ground track match the observation. ATV2 was docked to the station, which had a magnitude of −3.5 on this passage, very bright and visible to the naked eye. Because the witness had not seen the earlier overhead portion, he interpreted the final part as a descent. GEIPAN classifies the case A: observation of the ISS.
