Hi everybody, I am not familiar at all with orbiting satellite trajectories but I made the following observation on the early morning of Sunday December 01: Site of observation: N 46.32’ E 006.46’ Time: 00:20 GMT (+01:20 local) Weather: Mostly clear, light clouds Event: Driving a car, my attention was trap by a some kind of flashes of lighting reflected by the light clouds. Then, on a clear portion of the sky I saw a meteor burning up in the sky (about 45 degrees on the horizon). It was very bright with an electric blue /orange color. The trajectory was heading North, North-East. After few seconds the object split in 3 distinct parts just before disappearing over the mountains. Could it be an artificial satellite decay? It wasn’t looking as the meteors I am used to watch and it wasn’t a firework rocket as well ;-) Thank you for your help!
