Sighting in Allaire, May 9, 1994

Morbihan, Bretagne, France

Sighting on May 9, 1994 in Allaire (Morbihan, France). GEIPAN could not reach a conclusion for lack of sufficient information (class C).

What happened

At about 4:30 in the morning, a witness who was awake saw a bright, powerful light shaped like the letter Y. For a few minutes it stayed motionless in the sky. It then moved away and gradually faded from view. The whole sighting lasted only a few minutes.

No further information could be gathered on the case: the file gives no details on the weather, apparent size, colour or direction of movement, and mentions no other witnesses. Because the data were insufficient, the GEIPAN classified the case as C and put forward no explanation.

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