An open record of things people cannot explain

An account in Val-de-Marne, France

On June 3, 2010 at 7:28 a.m., a witness observed for about ten seconds the passage of a white sphere in the sky. Small in size and flying above the buildings, this object quickly disappeared, hidden by the urban landscape. No noise was heard during the observation. No other testimony was collected on this phenomenon. The witness does not wish to file a report with the gendarmerie. The description of the observation, well detailed in the questionnaire sent back to GEIPAN by the main witness, obviously suggests the observation of an object lighter than air (weather balloon or other). The weather situation at Roissy indicates at the time of the observation a weak north wind (between 360° and 10°) compatible with the 'north-south' trajectory described by the witness.
