Rapidly descending light spotted by Boeing 737 crew

Summary

On 18 February 2005, around 22:20, the pilot and co-pilot of a Boeing 737 reported an extremely bright light descending rapidly. The observation was brief but clear, and the crew interpreted it as a possible atmospheric entry. There were no other witnesses or additional recordings. GEIPAN classified the case as B. The testimony of professional pilots lends credibility to the report, though no definitive explanation was reached.
