An account in Ille-et-Vilaine, France

On Friday, May 2, 2008, at around 11:15 PM, a motorist and his passengers noticed in the sky the rapid movements of a white luminous phenomenon. An oval shape was seen with several strongly luminous points rotating inside it. A new observation would take place the same night around 2 AM. No noise was heard during the observations. The family would observe the phenomenon again on Saturday, May 10, 2008, at 2:30 AM. This observation case is not very strange: the hypothesis of a nightclub spotlight is entirely compatible with the observation. The indicated observation direction (to the Northeast on page 2, then to the North on page 3) does not allow a conclusion as to the point of origin of the probable lighting that was observed. This case is therefore classified as B: probable observation of commercial projections, such as those used by nightclubs.
