Red UFO seen in Massy in 1986

Summary

In April 1986, a couple in Massy, France, observed an unusual luminous phenomenon from their apartment. They saw a red ball the size of a lamppost, fixed in the sky, for about 15 minutes. The object showed no movement or significant changes during the time it was observed. Despite the considerable duration of the observation, no further details about the phenomenon were obtained. This case, classified as C by the GEIPAN, remains unexplained.

The description of the object is simple but striking: a constant and stable red light, suggesting it was not a common atmospheric phenomenon. Although there were no reports of sounds, secondary effects, or additional testimonies, the observation was recorded by French authorities responsible for investigating unidentified aerial phenomena. The case was filed without a definitive resolution, adding it to the list of events that remain a mystery.
