Bas-Rhin, France · 1994-10-30 · from the GEIPAN archive
On October 30, 1994 at around 1:45 a.m., a couple in a car observes a luminous circle rotating on itself, with lights regularly spaced around its edge. The supposed altitude of the phenomenon is 5 to 6 meters, and the phenomenon is stationary above the car. The car quickly leaves town but finds the phenomenon in front of the vehicle a bit further on: a triangle with the same type of lights around its perimeter had joined the circle. The triangle is equilateral, about 10 meters per side, and at an altitude of 10 to 15 meters. The phenomenon accompanied the vehicle, which was traveling at about 80 km/h, adapting to its speed, over several kilometers. During a change of direction, the object accelerated and moved away; the witnesses then specified that it had the shape of a boomerang. In the same time slot, and on the same road, another couple in another car describes the phenomenon with a quite surprising similarity of terms and describes the same movements relative to the vehicle. This phenomenon could not be explained.
