On the evening of July 16, 2010 at 11:30 PM, two people observe the passage of two luminous phenomena in the sky. Only one witness will report having seen a very bright white glow similar to a large star and moving quickly toward the Northwest. After one minute, it fades and finally disappears. Intrigued, this witness decides to go get binoculars and upon returning, he again observes the movement of a luminous phenomenon of circular shape. Accelerations and oscillations are observed as the object moves away and disappears. Of relatively low strangeness, this observation case has many characteristics of a satellite passage. However, due to a lack of precise information (exact time, archives of the satellite passage bulletin for 2010) allowing this hypothesis to be validated, this case is classified as C.
