A bright fireball was largely recorded by the new FRIPON network, as it was recorded by 18 video stations (out of more than 60 dispatched all over the French territory), and 2 radio receptors (Orsay and Orléans, that are currently the only ones installed).

The fireball appeared on June 22nd, 2016, at 01h14 UT. It was recorded on 2 radio receptors located in Orsay and Orléans. And it was also visually observed by people who reported it on the IMO/AMS fireball report platform.

Calculations performed with FRIPON team software indicates that the meteor luminous path started between Chambéry and Grenoble, over the Alps, travelled north-West in N285 azimuth, passing few kilometers South to the vertical of Lyon, to disappear between Roanne and Montbrison.
