An account in Hérault, France

On June 4, 2010 at 11:15 PM, a witness observed for two to three minutes three luminous points in the sky. Stationary and of the same size, they all disappeared at the same time. The witness does not wish to testify to the gendarmerie, and no other testimony will be collected on this phenomenon. The description of the phenomenon (successive appearance of 1 then 3 luminous points) again suggests the observation of luminous lanterns appearing successively in the sky and then going out ('disappearing' for the witness). The weather at midnight from the Montpellier station indicates a slight north wind compatible with the trajectory of a light 'object' described by the witness. The observed phenomenon has a low degree of strangeness. The hypothesis of observing flying lanterns is the most probable.
