Photographed in Haut-Rhin, France
On October 22, 2013 at 10:40 PM, a witness looking at the clear sky is intrigued by the S-N passage of a dark object shaped like a half-dome with hanging protrusions. The observation, very short (less than 10 seconds), does not allow the witness to take a photograph. The silent object disappears into the darkness of the night sky.
According to the elements collected by the questionnaire and the interview with the witness, GEIPAN classifies this case as B, as being probably a festive helium-filled balloon, of the "ladybug" type, that would have escaped from its owner.
