What happened
At around 3 a.m., the witness, a student, noticed a luminous phenomenon on three separate occasions and found it puzzling. It was a yellow ball that moved slowly and then disappeared. No sound was heard during the observation.
The next day, another witness went to the observation spot between 2 and 4 a.m. Directly above the place indicated by the first witness, they saw the Moon.
The investigation concluded, with a class B rating (probably identified), that the student most likely saw the Moon.
