Case description

On 13 March 2012 at 20:35, a witness saw 5 moderately bright lights move rapidly and silently in formation on a descending path. GEIPAN received a nearly simultaneous, very similar account from Saint-Mathieu-de-Tréviers (34), where the phenomenon was westward. It very probably concerned the same event. A meteoroid or space-debris atmospheric entry is therefore highly probable. GEIPAN classifies the case B: probable meteoroid atmospheric entry, with the source also using the term meteorite.
