An orange orb in Oise, France

On October 7, 1954 at 9:00 a.m., two people see, vertically above the church bell tower, a craft of oval shape, very shiny aluminum color. The craft moves SE-NW. The observation duration is one minute. This observation is the subject of a brief information sheet by the national gendarmerie. This type of observation can have various origins (sun reflection on an airplane, balloon, fireball). GEIPAN classifies this case as C due to lack of information.
