Sighting in Venon, October 15, 1976
Isère, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France
Sighting on October 15, 1976 in Venon (Isère, France). GEIPAN could not reach a conclusion for lack of sufficient information (class C).
What happened
A single witness gave a very brief account of what they saw at about 5:55 pm: a luminous object crossing the sky from south to north. It later appeared to them as a large cigar-shaped object, still moving without any sound. It finally disappeared heading northeast.
No other testimony was gathered about this phenomenon. With too little information available, GEIPAN could not take the case any further and classified it C (insufficient data). Its conclusion is limited to the observation of a moving luminous phenomenon.
Account rewritten by SkyUnknown from the investigation report published by GEIPAN (CNES). The original text and case documents are on the official record.
