An account in Loire, France

In the night of August 29 to 30, 1997, around midnight, several witnesses were alerted by the abnormal behavior of the farm animals. Going to the spot, they observed a white glow of rounded shape, with an outer ring and the inside set with small luminous circles, projecting beams of light toward the ground. The whole thing moved while rotating on itself. At 2 a.m., when the witnesses went to bed, the phenomenon was still present. Although no element of the investigation allows validating it, it does seem that this observation was the reflection on the clouds of an advertising laser projector capable of operating within a radius of 8 to 10 km.
