Sighting in Toulouse, August 18, 1993

Haute-Garonne, Occitanie, France

Sighting on August 18, 1993 in Toulouse (Haute-Garonne, France). GEIPAN could not reach a conclusion for lack of sufficient information (class C).

What happened

At around 2:30 in the morning, a witness noticed a luminous, elliptical phenomenon in the sky, its outline marked out by several separate light sources. It moved slowly and made no sound. No further information could be gathered about the sighting.

GEIPAN classified the case as C, meaning the available data are insufficient to propose an explanation. All that could be retained was the description of an elliptical shape moving slowly across the sky.

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