Official source account — 2017 annual report, printed page 14: A witness in the Argüello district of Córdoba filmed a moving light on 9 June 2011, with a star visible in the background. CEFAE reconstructed the sky and interpreted the light as most probably the low-orbit STMSAT-1 satellite. Its proposed match used the straight path, steady speed and brightness, background Beta Herculis and disappearance toward the east as the satellite entered Earth's shadow.
