Sighting in Saint-Girons, January 15, 2009

Ariège, Occitanie, France

Sighting on January 15, 2009 in Saint-Girons (Ariège, France). GEIPAN could not reach a conclusion for lack of sufficient information (class C).

What happened

At 10:15 a.m., a witness saw a white, lens-shaped phenomenon moving slowly from the northeast toward the southeast. One of the hypotheses considered was a lenticular cloud.

No investigation could be carried out, because the witness did not provide the information needed, even though the GEIPAN had asked for it. With too little data available, 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.
