Case description

Official source account — 2021 annual report, printed page 37: Martina Carrizo saw and filmed a luminous moving object from Catamarca. CIAE used Orbitron to reconstruct the reported time and direction. The simulation showed the International Space Station passing near the city's overhead position at approximately 20:28, on a course matching both the testimony and camera bearing. The agency identified the ISS and classified the case Type A. The summaries distinguish reported observations from the agency’s proposed explanations. Source Type A/B ratings describe explanatory confidence and are not encounter classes. The map uses an approximate GeoNames locality centroid, not the observation point.
