What happened

At 8:55 pm, a witness took a photograph with a mobile phone from a balcony. According to the witness, the Moon appears at the top of the image and a street light at the lower left. On the right, there is an orange, luminous object that the witness could not identify.

No other information about the observation could be gathered. GEIPAN classified the case as C, meaning insufficient data: the photograph shows an orange luminous object, but nothing more can be said about it.
