What happened
At around 10:15 p.m., a witness walking in the forest of Fontainebleau noticed a red point of light about 30° above the horizon. The witness then saw the object move before it disappeared. The whole sighting lasted roughly 6 minutes.
The witness did not reply to any of the letters GEIPAN sent, so too little information was available for an investigation to take place. The case was classified C because of insufficient data.
