AnomalyRecent testimony of an old observation. The witness observed several orange balls moving at low altitude in the sky and which went out one after another. The observation of orange balls moving slowly in the sky for a few minutes, during a Saturday-to-Sunday night, clearly suggests Thai lanterns, probably released at the end of a party. GEIPAN could not verify that these balls were indeed moving according to the wind, the testimony being too imprecise. GEIPAN classifies this not-very-strange testimony in category "B": probable observation of Thai lanterns.
