On February 18, 2005 at around 10:30 PM, two witnesses in two departments in eastern France observed the very rapid passage of a green or white trail, depending on the accounts, which disappeared within a few seconds. These people probably saw an atmospheric reentry. Moreover, a few days later, the press reported that many people located in the northeastern departments of France had observed the fall of a small meteorite.
