Bright yellow point falling rapidly over Grasse

Summary

On January 3, 2009, a driver and passenger in Grasse saw a very bright yellow luminous point fall rapidly without leaving a visible trail. The object disappeared behind a hill and no sound was heard. An atmospheric entry was considered, but no additional data confirmed the hypothesis. Despite GEIPAN's request, the witness did not provide a more detailed description, limiting the investigation. The case was classified as C: insufficient data for a conclusion.
