An account in Eure, France

This testimony reports fixed luminous points present every evening in the sky, without further detail. But also a brief luminous phenomenon on August 13, 2013; only this latter phenomenon was considered, due to lack of precise information for the former phenomena, most likely linked to stars. A strong light moving at high speed in the sky for 2 seconds clearly suggests a bolide, that is, the re-entry into the atmosphere of a fragment of an asteroid (meteoroid) or a piece of satellite debris. An automatic camera from the BOAM meteor observer network is located in May-sur-Orne, about 65 km from the site of this observation. It recorded numerous bolides during that night, right in the middle of the Perseid meteor shower period. There are 3 bolides roughly matching the observation within a 5-minute window around the declared observation time (2:35 a.m. local time). GEIPAN classifies this observation "A": bolide, that is, the re-entry into the atmosphere of a fragment of an asteroid (meteoroid) or a piece of satellite debris.
