White ball over Montlouis-sur-Loire identified as the ISS

Summary

On the night of August 13, 2007, a family stargazing in their garden in Montlouis-sur-Loire saw a white sphere that appeared to grow as it approached. The object shifted direction toward Polaris before vanishing. GEIPAN classified the case as A after determining that the observed phenomenon was the International Space Station, visible from that location at the time.
