An account in Paris, France

On Friday, February 29, 2008, GEIPAN received an email accompanied by two photographs showing a luminous ball, corresponding to an observation of a luminous phenomenon in the sky made on the evening of March 26, 2007. This testimony is of fairly weak consistency: the account was given several months after the facts, it is somewhat confused, not very reliable although certainly sincere; the long-exposure photo is difficult to interpret (there remains a doubt about the blur: due to the object or to the camera?). The observed phenomenon is not very strange: it is only a luminous point whose movement is poorly characterized, whether by the witness or by the photo; the change in shape is fairly strange but may be due to a change in position. Given these various imprecisions, this case is classified as "C" for lack of reliable information.
