Sighting in Albi, February 10, 1977

Tarn, Occitanie, France

Sighting on February 10, 1977 in Albi (Tarn, France). GEIPAN could not reach a conclusion for lack of sufficient information (class C).

What happened

At about 5:58 a.m., two people were at home when they saw a flashing, luminous sphere moving silently. It quickly disappeared toward the north-northwest, hidden by the urban landscape. No other witness came forward about the phenomenon.

GEIPAN classified the case as C, meaning insufficient data: the investigation could only record the silent movement of a luminous sphere and could not establish what it was.

Account rewritten by SkyUnknown from the investigation report published by GEIPAN (CNES). The original text and case documents are on the official record.
