Testimony of successive observations of luminous phenomena in the sky, and especially for May 29, 2008, observation of the silent movement of a luminous ball of yellow-white color. The witness reports two very clearly identifiable phenomena. Stars that change color are just stars twinkling according to high-altitude winds; this effect depends on the weather conditions of the day, and can be more or less pronounced. The UAP visible in the form of a bright luminous ball was most likely the ISS (International Space Station), which was passing over the Breton sky at the time indicated by the witness (see the document "ISS passage Calsky"). The testimony was sent during the day of May 30, and the witness says "last night," so it was indeed the night of May 29 to 30, 2008. Given the lack of precision in the testimony, this hypothesis, although very likely, cannot however be confirmed with certainty. This case is classified "B": probable observation of the International Space Station ISS.
