AnomalyRecent testimony of an old observation: a witness observes during the month of April 2006 at 10 a.m. (the day's date is not specified, the date given here is arbitrary) the silent and straight-line movement of a black object in the sky. The speed is constant and the object disappears at the horizon. The witness compares the object to an "oil barrel" or a "black cabin." The fairly low altitude, the black barrel shape, a slow movement that is perhaps at the mercy of the wind suggest a thermal (solar) balloon. Since the date is unknown, this hypothesis cannot be confirmed. GEIPAN classifies this case "C": lack of information.
