Sphere over Plouharnel, Bretagne · France
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Le 7 août 2009 entre 23h10 et 23h15, deux témoins observent le passage silencieux d'une boule très brillante. Celle-ci se déplace lentement sur un axe Nord-sud. En dépit de plusieurs relances, trop peu de renseignements seront recueillis auprés des témoins. Ce cas est classé C par manque d'informations. [GEIPAN classification C — Manque d'informations fiables]
Held as-reported from GEIPAN, Centre national d'études spatiales (record GEIPAN 2009-08-02399). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
