AnomalyOn Friday, February 20, 2009 at around 7 a.m., a motorist observed in the sky the passage from northwest to southeast of a luminous phenomenon colored blue/green. It was not possible for us to cross-check this testimony with the database of amateur meteor observers, nor with that of the French meteor observation network. Nevertheless, the characteristics reported by the witness are in every respect consistent with an atmospheric entry of a meteoroid. This case is classified as B, as the probable observation of a bolide (meteoroid fall).
