Sighting in Biarritz, 2007

The account was collected in March 2010 and concerns an older event from spring 2007, early May according to the witnesses' recollection, though no precise date could be given. Two people were frightened by a brief sighting of a huge mass in the sky.

It was about 11:30 pm and thick fog covered the residential neighbourhood of detached houses. The two witnesses were walking back to their car, parked in the street, when they saw, on two occasions, an enormous metallic shape hanging motionless and surrounded by a halo of light. It was roughly 500 away in both distance and altitude, as stated in the source. They heard no noise during these very short observations.

No other witness came forward about the phenomenon. With too little information available, no investigation was possible, and GEIPAN classified the case C (insufficient data).
