Red lights in Loiret, France
On October 19, 2014 at around 8:30 PM, a witness and his brother-in-law observed the silent passage of a dark triangular shape with red lights at each end. This phenomenon passed over the garden. These three points moved in a line, then formed a dark triangle. The witnesses left the observation site. Only one testimony was collected. Given the objective elements defined in the investigation report (see attached document), namely:
- the possibility that the UAP was not a single solid object, but rather three independent objects.
- the straight-line trajectory, like that of an object carried by a steady and regular wind.
- the red color, similar to that of lanterns.
- the absence of noise.
- the observation duration compatible with the lifespan of a lantern.
- the observation date favorable for lantern releases, on the weekend, on the occasion of celebrations, weddings, etc... Confusion with a group of three Thai lanterns is possible. However, we lack the azimuth data of the UAP's movement. This testimony is of low consistency: not very precise and lacking essential data for analysis (direction of movement), coming moreover from a single witness and without photos. The observation is not very strange because it involves objects with ultimately ordinary behavior and appearance. GEIPAN classifies this case in category C due to lack of information and cross-checking.
