An orange orb in Seine-Maritime, France

On November 26, 2011 at 4:53 a.m., a witness observed the passage of a bright point with a green trail. The description given by the witness matches a fireball exactly: strong light with a green trail, straight trajectory, duration of a few seconds. A fireball is the term for the phenomenon produced by the entry into the upper atmosphere of a "large" meteorite (over 100 grams, that is, from a few centimeters to 1 meter). Because this observation was also recorded on the REFORME network (meteor observers) at the same time (within one minute) by several observers, the meteoritic origin of the phenomenon is not in doubt. REFORME notes the magnitude at -10, making it an exceptional object. To see the video on the internet: (fireball of November 26, 2011).
