On Saturday evening, around 9:20 p.m., several trustworthy residents of Grancey reported seeing an "object" with a yellow-orange hue, moving silently through the sky at high altitude, leaving a luminous trail behind it.
Coming from the east, the craft was heading toward the west or northwest. According to the observers, it was neither an airplane nor a shooting star.
