Red lights in Meurthe-et-Moselle, France

Following a television report about lights in the sky, a witness stated that on May 31, 2008, between 10:30 p.m. and 11:00 p.m., along with other people, he saw a large white light followed by a smaller red light, moving one behind the other, without any noise, before disappearing. This testimony is very unremarkable, and the description too brief for a serious study. The witness did not respond to our request for a questionnaire or to file a statement with the gendarmerie. It could simply be satellite passes and/or flying lanterns (Thai), but the lack of detail in the testimony does not allow us to verify either of these hypotheses. For lack of precise data, GEIPAN classifies this case as "C" due to insufficient information.
