One cottager near St. Agathe described a fluorescent green ball with a red tail, visible for roughly five seconds, with some Twitter users describing the ball as bright blue.
Marc Andrew, who is located in l'Épiphanie, told CTV he saw a ball of vivid orange and red coming from the northwest.
"I've seen shooting stars, but I haven't seen anything like this," he said, adding, "It was exactly like what you see in the movies."
According to experts, it is a bright shooting star called a "fireball".
Late on the night of the 19th, witness information that something like a ball of light flowed down over a wide area such as Kanto and Kinki was posted on SNS one after another.
In the video sent to NHK's video posting site Scoop Box, it was confirmed that something like a shooting star suddenly brightened and disappeared at around 10:17 pm on the 19th.

According to the meteor monitoring station JJS/SC, associated with Bramon ( Brazilian Meteor Observation Network), the JJS2 camera captured the exact moment of the phenomenon. The video was posted on social networks and shows, in various ways, the luminous phase of the star.
With a magnitude of -1, the meteor lit up the sky for 4.4 seconds, peaked at a magnitude of -1. The path began to glow at azimuth 222 with an elevation of 43° and an estimated altitude of 91 kilometers. In the video, it is possible to see the moment in contrast and at different speeds, as it passed close to the Cruzeiro do Sul constellation. On the way, the meteor reached enough capacity to cover the distance between the cities of Fraiburgo and Campo Belo do Sul in Santa Catarina in less than five seconds.
