Sunday around 10:10 p.m., several residents of Albertville and Ugine (the Savoy) saw, passing in the sky, a large luminous ball, of orange yellow color, which appeared to move at relatively slow speed and low altitude, on a South-North trajectory. Its passage was accompanied by a deaf humming noise.
A distant light in the night low on the horizon and not too fast, with a deaf sound, is a good description of the passing of a plane. However, a ufologist who investigated the sighting then has informed me that it was actually a meteor fireball.
