An account in Isère, France

On April 25, 1983, several witnesses would see in the sky between 8:15 and 8:45 an object of oval shape. The color is light, almost transparent, and sometimes metallic, even silvery. This object moves at very low speed from West to South-Southwest. Several times it would be hidden by clouds, into which it would finally disappear completely. The witnesses probably observed a balloon, of the weather balloon type.
