An account in Marne, France

On April 14, 2011 at around 9:45 p.m., a witness observed for a few minutes the rapid movements of a light. The light traced figure-eights in the cloudy sky. The description given by the witness matches exactly the appearance produced by laser projectors used for festive displays (nightclubs, fairs, special events). The presence of low clouds made the phenomenon very visible. It is noted that on that day there was a fair in Reims, which is probably the origin of the phenomenon.
