Spinning object with erratic trajectory in Montpellier

Summary

In January 1975, several witnesses in Montpellier saw an object that appeared to spin on its axis while slowly descending toward the horizon, then rapidly climbing and vanishing. Two similar observations were reported, but only two people agreed to speak, both anonymously. The gendarmerie searched for more witnesses without success. Classified C, the case lacks the concrete details needed for a deeper assessment.
