Vanishing suddenly in Sa�ne-et-Loire, France

On April 10, 2014 at around 6 p.m., a witness observed a bright stationary object in the sky. The observation lasted about thirty seconds, then the object disappeared instantly. Only one testimony was collected. A bright object observed to the West in the late afternoon suggests the reflection of the sun on an airplane or balloon. If it is an airplane, one must consider a distant airplane (more than 50 km away), traveling in a direction close to that of the witness. The sudden disappearance is probably explained by a change in the object's orientation relative to the sun: it would be the reflection that disappeared, not the object itself. This case, which is not very strange, is classified "B" — probable observation of the reflection of the setting sun on a distant high-altitude airplane (likely EZY434P according to Gasperflights).

Has this happened to you?

Write it down while you still remember the details. We will look for the others.

Know someone this happened to?

If this reminds you of something a friend or a relative told you once and never mentioned again, send them this page. Reading that a stranger described the same thing is usually the part that helps.
