An open record of things people cannot explain

An account in Doubs, France

On April 19, 2011 at 9:37 PM, two people observe from the terrace of a dwelling the slow, straight-line passage of a white luminous sphere above the mountain ridge of the Risoux massif. The main witness will take a film of their observation. Unfortunately, the quality of the film will not allow the gendarmerie to make any particular interpretation and does not account for the observation made by the witness (heavy shaking due to maximum zoom and artifacts). The directions and times of observation correspond exactly to a pass of the International Space Station ISS: this case is classified "A": perfectly identified.
