Moving in formation in Sa�ne-et-Loire, France

For several evenings in a row, around 9 p.m., people observe the passage at very high altitude and at constant speed of a luminous object. It moves in a northeast-southwest direction. The regularity of the trajectory, the visibility time, and the repetition over two days confirm the hypothesis of an observation of the passage of an artificial satellite.
