Sighting in Tignes, February 18, 2008

Savoie, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France

Sighting on February 18, 2008 in Tignes (Savoie, France). GEIPAN could not reach a conclusion for lack of sufficient information (class C).

What happened

At 4:21 p.m., a witness noticed two round, white objects in the sky above a mountain range. According to the GEIPAN conclusion, they moved slowly and silently. The witness took a photograph of the scene.

No other witness account was gathered about this phenomenon. GEIPAN considered the case only slightly strange and too thin to support any conclusion. Because of the lack of information and of corroborating evidence, it was classified C, meaning the data were insufficient to decide.

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