Eure, France · 1977-10-28 · from the GEIPAN archive
The gendarmerie was informed via the press that several people had observed a luminous phenomenon in the sky several times in a row. The witnesses' descriptions vary as to the very description of the phenomenon (ball or glow, color (white and red), flashing or not, moving or stationary). The air surveillance services of base 105 at Évreux-Fauville noticed no particular phenomenon in the sky on October 28, 1977. No other testimony was collected by the gendarmerie on this phenomenon.
