Sighting in Bligny, November 11, 1976

Aube, Grand Est, France

Sighting on November 11, 1976 in Bligny (Aube, France). GEIPAN could not reach a conclusion for lack of sufficient information (class C).

What happened

A witness noticed an unusual object in the sky on three occasions, on 11, 12 and 20 November, between 5:30 pm and 6:45 pm. The sighting intrigued them. The object was triangular and appeared in a variety of colors. Sometimes it stayed motionless, and at other times it moved.

No other witness account was gathered, and the gendarmerie did not observe the phenomenon itself. Because there was not enough information, GEIPAN classified the case as C (insufficient data). It involved repeated sightings of an unusual object by a single witness.
