Police witness in Aube, France
The witness, driving in his vehicle at high speed (130 km/h), observes an intense white halo whirling around in the sky. The information given in the questionnaire (no police report) specifies neither the exact location nor the exact duration of the observation. Nevertheless, the vehicle was traveling in a North-South direction and the driver was observing the South through his windshield. At the time of the observation, SIRIUS, the brightest star in our sky, was in the direction of observation. The variable, twinkling character, combined with the visual fatigue of driving, can explain the impression of whirling in the observation. A precise verification is not possible, but the probable observation of the star Sirius can explain the sighting.
