On August 5, 2015, between 10 p.m. and 10:30 p.m., two people in the same municipality observe the silent passage of several orange orbs that twinkle in the clear sky. The intensity of these orbs gradually decreases until they go out. The observation of orange orbs crossing the sky in a few minutes, on a summer night, clearly suggests Thai lanterns, probably released nearby at the end of a private party. The movement is observed coming from the southeast. The Infoclimat report at Épinal (about 10 km away) indicates a light wind, very variable during the evening (south wind at 9 p.m., north wind at 10 p.m., Infoclimat report from the day of the observation). It is not possible to correlate this wind with the observed movement. The second witness states having identified a twinkling similar to a candle flame. GEIPAN classifies this case "B": probable observation of Thai lanterns.
