UFO in Bayonne 1978

Summary

In December 1978, three people in Bayonne observed a luminous object moving irregularly and angularly in the sky for 20 to 30 minutes. The testimony, collected in 2016, describes apparent random changes in direction. Although the witnesses left the terrace while the object was still moving, only one provided details. The GEIPAN considers it could be an unusual aircraft or satellite trajectory. Due to the age of the case and lack of precise historical data, no hypothesis can be ruled out. Classification C reflects the lack of information for a conclusive assessment.
