On August 5, 2010 at 10:55 PM, during an evening walk, the witness saw a yellow luminous ball moving along a north-south trajectory above the city at moderate speed. This case, which is not very strange (a luminous point moving in a straight line), is of low consistency due to inaccuracies in the orientation and description of the phenomenon itself (vague apparent size). The hypothesis of observing a large satellite remains the most likely, but is not proven. This case is classified as C due to a lack of information and because of the inaccuracies noted.
