Testimony given in February 2016 concerning an observation made in the second half of September 2015 (the date of the day is arbitrary). The witness is at the dock, on a boat, when she observes the movement of a luminous point through her open skylight. This point suddenly stops, then moves off again very quickly, and thus performs a stepped ascent. Only one testimony will be collected. What is described may seem strange but is already reported at GEIPAN, and may find an explanation in one or several phenomena in conjunction (satellites entering and leaving visibility, visual autokinetic effect, etc.). In the absence of a precise date (the witness does not know the day of the month), it is impossible to investigate further. Consequently, GEIPAN classifies this case as C: lack of information.
