AnomalyA witness reports their observations on July 15, 16, and 17, 2010, of a luminous phenomenon that appears around 10 p.m. and disappears around 11:10 p.m. Other people present did not give testimony. The main witness took photographs of the phenomenon. Reconstructing the direction of the observation shows a cone centered toward the West. The characteristics described by the witness (a very powerful point of light in the sky, observed for several consecutive days in the same place for long minutes (up to 60 minutes), descending toward the horizon) leave no ambiguity about the observation of a celestial object. The planet Venus, with a strong magnitude of -4.1, was located in the portion of sky observed. The case is classified as A, as the observation of the planet Venus.
