TOUSSUS-LE-NOBLE (78) 04.02.2012

On 4 February 2012 at about 23:15, people in Yvelines and Aube saw a blue-green and orange light move silently along a straight path. GEIPAN considers the accounts characteristic of an atmospheric-entry event. In its assessment, the west-southwest direction and duration of only a few seconds rule out space-debris reentry. It classifies the case as B: a probable meteoroid entering the atmosphere, described parenthetically in the source as a meteorite fall.
