A triangle shape in Bouches-du-Rh�ne, France

On June 12, 2009 at 11:10 PM, a witness noticed above her lights outlining a large black triangular mass moving along a north-south trajectory with no sound heard. No other testimony was collected. The witness described alignments of lights, similar to stars, forming a black triangle. This triangle moved slowly toward the sea. It is possible that the black triangle was only an optical illusion created by the alignment of the bright points, which could be Thai lanterns. The movement of the points could be due only to the wind (weak, from the northwest). The description of the lights and that of the movement is insufficiently precise for the GEIPAN to confirm this hypothesis. This case is classified "C": insufficient elements to conclude.
