AnomalyOn November 12, 1977 at around 4:53 p.m., two people observed in the sky a luminous object of elongated shape, first stationary, then gradually rising into the air before disappearing instantly into the clouds. No particular noise was heard during the observation, which lasted more than twenty seconds. No particular military maneuver was carried out on the military camp that day. These witnesses probably observed the passage of a meteorological balloon lit by the setting sun.
