Oval UFO in Beauvais 1982

Summary

On April 12, 1982, several witnesses in Beauvais-en-Cambresis (France) reported a luminous phenomenon in the sky. It was described as an oval-shaped object with an orange color, flying at a very high altitude but at a very slow speed. For about 10 minutes, the object remained unchanged in shape and color, maintaining a constant speed throughout the observation.

The slow and steady movement of the object caught the attention of the witnesses, who did not report any additional details. Despite the simplicity of the description, the GEIPAN classified this case as category C, suggesting the possibility of an unexplained phenomenon was not ruled out. The object remained silent and left no trace, disappearing suddenly at the end of the observation.
