O rastro na imagem stack está muito constante para um meteoro, os flashes poderiam ser as luzes estroboscópicas, já que o flare não vem de todo o objeto mas de uma de suas laterais e ocorre a esquerda e depois a direita. Luzes de sinalização podem ser acesas durante o dia (especialmente se for atravessar ou tiver atravessado nuvens Cumulos) e são bem brilhantes pois as lâmpadas são de Xenonio.
The stack trace in the image is too constant to a meteor flashes the strobe lights could be, since the flare does not come from any object but its side and the left and then the right occurs. Signal lights can be switched on during the day (especially if you go through or have gone through cumulus clouds) and are very bright because the bulbs are xenon.
Thank you Carlos!

diameter ca. 2 inches, color greenish, duration seveal seconds, length
of luminous train (apparently 50-60 cm). She and her "girls" heard no
sonic boom." Location: Mannheim - Rheinau (Rheinau is a place about 10 km east
