Yellow ball with blue flashes over Saint-Amant-Roche-Savine, 1983

Summary

In January 1983, several witnesses in Saint-Amant-Roche-Savine watched a yellow ball glide silently at low altitude, accompanied by small blue flashes. It suddenly disintegrated, leading observers to believe something had fallen nearby. Authorities searched the area but found no debris. The most plausible hypothesis is an atmospheric entry of a celestial body that broke apart before reaching the ground.
