AnomalyTwo witnesses observe on March 15, 2008, from 10:20 PM to 10:30 PM, three silent and successive passages of a luminous phenomenon described as a "ball of fire." The witness's description (scintillating ball), the spacing between observations, the movement consistent with the dominant wind direction (coming from the East), the time and day of the week (Saturday evening) are consistent with the observation of Thai lanterns. This case is classified "B": probable observation of 3 Thai lanterns.
