UFO observed in Montdardier in 1988

Summary

In December 1988, four witnesses in Montdardier (France) saw a luminous object shaped like two rectangles separated by a black line. The silent phenomenon, located about 7-8 meters above the ground, seemed to block the road. As the vehicles moved forward, the object receded, maintaining its relative position. Although the witnesses agreed on the description and their credibility was never questioned, investigators concluded the object was actually the setting Moon. The witnesses failed to mention the Moon, and factors like fatigue and night driving influenced their interpretation. Today, this case is classified as PAN A, meaning an observation attributed to a misinterpretation of a known astronomical object.
