An account in Puy-de-Dôme, France
On September 23, 2012 at 5:05 p.m., a motorist and his partner observe several round luminous objects that appear and disappear in the clouds. No other testimony will be collected. The witnesses were driving in a South-Southwest direction (see map), the weather (see Meteociel report) indicates in Clermont-Ferrand a strong south wind, and a fairly overcast sky. The luminous objects seen by the witnesses could be metallic balloons reflecting the sun. The wind blowing in the opposite direction of the witnesses, they seem almost stationary. The day and time of the observation are compatible with a release at the end of a party or a sporting event. Even if this hypothesis is consistent with the witnesses' statements, GEIPAN could not confirm it through other cross-checks. This case is classified "C" due to lack of information to validate this balloon hypothesis.
