An account in Indre-et-Loire, France

In May 2008, a witness reported that with several other people, he had observed on July 29, 2007 at around 8 p.m., the passage in the sky of a dark-colored ball dotted with irregular light spots. This sphere with a protrusion at the front moved in a straight line on a west-southeast trajectory. During the observation, which lasted about thirty seconds, no noise was heard and no smoke was noticed. These people probably saw a balloon; nevertheless, no hypothesis can be verified given how old the observation is.
