Riedisheim 1981, Elliptical object with orange light

Summary

On September 22, 1981, at 6:15 AM, a witness from his room in Riedisheim (France) observed a flying object moving along a northeast to southwest trajectory. The object had an elliptical shape with blurred edges and a sort of dome on its upper part. It emitted a yellow-orange light, which caught the witness's attention for one minute. Despite the duration of the observation, no other people nearby reported the phenomenon. The lack of additional information makes it difficult to classify the case precisely, but it remains an interesting entry in the GEIPAN database.
