Recent testimony (April 19, 2010) of an old observation. On September 28, 2008, a witness observes in the sky for about 15 minutes two red luminous points. One of the two points moves slowly then accelerates before disappearing. The stationary light described could correspond to the planet Venus, observable with the naked eye in the West at sunset (red-orange light) with a magnitude of -4.2. Was the "red planet" Mars not observable with the naked eye (apparent magnitude of +1.5, too low on the horizon)? The 2nd moving red light could be an aircraft. Nevertheless, since this is an old observation reported several months later, any verification and investigation are impossible. The case is classified C for lack of information.
