The report, as filed
Le 30 avril 1995 vers 3h30, un témoin ainsi que son épouse observent une masse lumineuse brillante avec de nombreux points brillants se déplaçant dans le ciel. L'enquête montrera rapidement qu'il s'agit vraisemblablement d'un projecteur de discothèque "Sky rose" dont la lumière est visible à plusieurs kilomètres selon la couverture nuageuse et les conditions atmosphériques. [GEIPAN classification B — Phénomène identifié non indiqué]
Held as-reported from GEIPAN, Centre national d'études spatiales (record GEIPAN 1995-04-01390). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
