An open record of things people cannot explain

An account in Aube, France

On November 1, 2014 at 9:15 PM, a witness observed three round-shaped objects, orange-red in color, moving silently in the sky. He eventually lost sight of the objects. The observation of orange balls crossing the sky in a few minutes, on a weekend night, suggests Thai lanterns, probably released nearby, at the end of a private party. The movement was observed from the north facade of the witness's house, from West to East. This movement does not match the light South wind recorded at Melun: weather. This Thai lantern hypothesis, compatible with the witness's description, cannot therefore be confirmed, unless considering a gust of wind just at the time of the observation. GEIPAN cannot conclude on this case, for lack of precise weather data near the observation site, and for lack of cross-checking. This case of observation of low strangeness is therefore classified in category "C".
