An account in Paris, France

On November 5, 1989, a taxi driver observed for a few seconds the rapid passage of a luminous point in the sky over Paris. A luminous object of round shape followed by a greenish trail crossed the sky. No other testimony was collected. The witness's description corresponds to the observation of a probable atmospheric reentry.
