A beam of light in Lozère, France

In the night of 24 to 25 July 1993 between 2:45 and 3:30, 3 witnesses observe a white luminous phenomenon that moves while turning on itself with numerous luminous points. The investigation will quickly show that it is a multifaceted spotlight from a nearby nightclub whose light, reflecting on the low cloudy ceiling, can be seen from very far away. The manager of the nightclub, also questioned, was able to confirm this hypothesis.
