On March 17, 2009, a witness in Saint-Martin-l’Ars (Vienne) observed at 20:10 two white luminous disks moving east and northeast, apparently connected by a mass. At that time, the space shuttle Atlantis was approaching the International Space Station (ISS). The witness's description matches the observation of this space maneuver. The case was classified as "A", indicating it is an observation of the space shuttle approaching the ISS.
