Hovering in Nord, France
On December 16, 1988, in the Cambrai region, at sunset, a female student driving her car observed a round, silent object hovering about 20 meters above a field, with 4 or 6 "large lamps" on its lower part. In addition, light appeared in a nearby house that was supposedly abandoned. The observation lasted about 1 minute because the witness did not dare to stop. After investigation, the light in the house could be explained, as the farm was in fact being used by soldiers on maneuvers, but no other data could be gathered concerning the shape observed, which could not be identified.
