An account in Savoie, France

On February 1, 1985, at around 6 p.m., several witnesses spotted a peculiar glow for 3 seconds. Passing very quickly above them, they saw a green ball followed by a conical stream ranging from light yellow to bright red. This highly beautiful phenomenon remained silent. Although various elements suggest an atmospheric re-entry, no further information could be gathered about this phenomenon.
