An orange orb in Loire-Atlantique, France

On July 25 at 5:30 a.m., two police officers on duty observe from their vehicle the very rapid passage of a red and green fireball followed by a trail of smoke. Several other witnesses will come forward, and the press will report on this sighting, which is most likely a reentry of a meteorite or space debris.
