An account in Indre-et-Loire, France

On the first day, at the time of the observation, the space shuttle was in the approach phase to the international station. The next day, the shuttle had reached the ISS. The testimony is consistent with the observation of this "hooked-up pair," except that the witness describes a change of direction: since this change of direction took place behind a mask (chimney), one can think of a misjudgment of the direction of movement. The changes in brightness and appearance are normal: the reflection of the sun varies during the passage, and the approach of the horizon reddens the appearance of all luminous objects. This case is classified "B": probable observation of the space shuttle and the ISS.
