AnomalyOn February 6, 1989 at around 11:20 PM, about ten independent witnesses spread across several departments in the southwest observe an intense light that becomes bluish with a trail and that disappears in about ten seconds. Several investigations are carried out by the police brigades, who found nothing at the presumed locations of an object's fall. This large-scale phenomenon was seen from several relatively distant places in the departments of Aveyron, Tarn-et-Garonne, Haute-Garonne, Lot-et-Garonne, and Puy-de-Dôme. It is probably a large-scale atmospheric reentry.
