A witness reports on November 15, 2011, an observation made on April 10, 2010 at 6:23 a.m. of the passage of a white/yellow luminous sphere above the neighboring residence.

The witness's description suggests an airplane seen from the front, with its landing light on, but the observed object was silent and the witness, who is used to looking at the sky at that time of day, did not recognize an airplane.

The file is classified as "A": observation of the ISS.
