Sighting in Ferrassières, September 28, 2011

Drôme, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France

Sighting on September 28, 2011 in Ferrassières (Drôme, France). GEIPAN could not reach a conclusion for lack of sufficient information (class C).

What happened

At around 8:25 pm, a driver and their passenger briefly saw several lights in the sky. The file refers to three points of light, but gives no further detail on their shape, colour or movements.

The GEIPAN rated the case as moderately strange and of moderate consistency: the account was precise, but the two witnesses were not independent of each other. The only explanation that could be put forward was luminous balloons, and no additional information supported it. For lack of cross-checking, the case was classified C, insufficient data.

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