AnomalyAt 3 a.m. on June 16, 1982, witnesses spotted in the sky an object of spherical shape in a halo followed by a set of smaller points of orange-yellow color forming a luminous trail. This set moved slowly in a straight line from the northeast to the southeast. The observation lasted less than a minute and no noise linked to this phenomenon was heard. Based on the descriptions of the phenomenon, these people were probably witnesses to an atmospheric reentry.
