An open record of things people cannot explain

An account in Marne, France

A witness reports successive observations (between January 23 and February 2, 2009) of luminous points. The witness provided several dozen photos on which his testimony is based. These night photos are taken with flash. None of them shows any strangeness, but orbs (dust lit by the flash) are visible in a large majority of them. The witness probably exaggerated the description and interpretation of his observations. See an example of orbs and an explanation at /index.php?id=374. GEIPAN classifies this case "A": perfectly identified phenomenon.
