Pas-de-Calais, France · 2010-08-22 · from the GEIPAN archive
On August 22, 2010 at 2:40 in the morning, several people observe from their homes the silent passage of glowing orange-colored balls forming a triangle and all moving in the same direction S-NE on a straight trajectory. These balls eventually disappear after taking on a brighter red color. One of the witnesses filmed part of the observation. Following a report to the gendarmerie by a person who had read an article about this in the press, and in accordance with the information provided by the gendarmerie report, this is a confirmed case of a release of lanterns during a private party in the neighboring town.
