Recent testimony about an old observation. On July 23, 2015, a witness reports an observation made on October 31, 2012. That day, at 7:50 p.m., the witness is intrigued by the silent S-N passage of an orange ball in the sky. The movement is fairly slow and straight. He films his observation. No other testimony will be collected. The crossing of the sky by an orange ball in a few minutes clearly suggests a Thai lantern, especially the day before a holiday and on Halloween day. The video, put on YouTube for a time, is compatible with this scenario. Geipan classifies the case as B: probable Thai lantern.
