Saône-et-Loire, Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, France

Sighting on February 21, 2002 in Saint-Léger-sur-Dheune (Saône-et-Loire, France). GEIPAN could not reach a conclusion for lack of sufficient information (class C).

What happened

At around 8 p.m., a witness was out for a walk with their spouse when they noticed an oval-shaped object at high altitude. It first moved slowly, then vanished in a sudden, extremely rapid acceleration. The sighting was very brief, and the spouse saw nothing.

No further information about the observation is available. The GEIPAN classified the case as C, insufficient data, concluding that it was a fleeting observation of an oval luminous shape.
