Photographed in Tarn, France
On June 21, 2013, a witness observed and photographed a fixed object of several changing and flashing colors in the night sky toward the west. The photographs were taken between 4:23 a.m. and 4:30 a.m.; the witness had the good idea to also send us two daytime photographs taken from the same spot and in the same direction. Given the elements defined in the investigation report (see the document), namely in particular the color of the UAP, the very pronounced twinkling effect, and the position in altitude and azimuth, this case is classified as "A" as a certain observation of the star Arcturus, located low on the horizon and subject to the effects of twinkling.
