An open record of things people cannot explain

An account in Gard, France

On December 20, 1978 at around 10:15 PM, a witness spotted long pink trails in the sky, then two spinning-top-shaped craft rotating on themselves. During the objects' movement at very high speed, the main witness heard no noise. Another witness called to the scene saw only a blaze in the sky. No other testimony was collected about this phenomenon, for which we lack information.
