Police witness in Gironde, France
A witness reports successive observations on September 21, 2008, and July 10, 2009, of luminous spheres moving without noise. A set of photographs taken by the witness is attached to his description.
This case concerns observations made by the same witness on several dates without a police report. These observations are described as single luminous points or less luminous ones structured in pairs in the questionnaire returned by the witness to GEIPAN. Given the multiplicity of observations, GEIPAN commissioned an IPN who focused on the first observation of September 21, 2008. The reported elements reflect a probable observation of the International Space Station ISS. The description of "spheres" and "central nucleus" being due to the use of optical devices (binoculars).
This case is classified B.
