Sighting in Saint-Pol-sur-Ternoise, July 1, 1995

Pas-de-Calais, Hauts-de-France, France

Sighting on July 1, 1995 in Saint-Pol-sur-Ternoise (Pas-de-Calais, France). GEIPAN could not reach a conclusion for lack of sufficient information (class C).

What happened

During the night of 31 May to 1 June 1995, two witnesses saw lights, each from a different place. One was driving a car and saw the lights for only 2 to 3 seconds. The other was at home and watched them for around ten minutes. Both reported that the lights moved at high speed and made no sound.

Very little information was available on this sighting, so GEIPAN could not carry out a serious analysis. The case was classed C, insufficient data, with the conclusion that several rapidly moving lights had been observed.

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