An account in Lot, France
From June 2014 to December 2015, a person regularly observes the sky with binoculars and a telescope and reports several observations of colored spheres, only visible on starry nights. The multicolored spheres move slightly. The witness notably recounts a long observation made on June 6, 2014. No other testimony was collected.
The long (30 min) and repeated observation of bright points in the sky, moving slowly, appearing multicolored when observed with binoculars or an astronomical telescope, points toward the observation of stars, particularly twinkling ones at low elevation.
Given the sky chart of the time of the observation, it could be Capella, Vega, or Deneb.
The effect observed by the witness is possibly the result of an incorrect adjustment of the astronomical telescope.
GEIPAN classifies this case "B": probable observation of particularly twinkling stars at low elevation.
