🇫🇷 GEIPAN / CNES
On January 6, 1998, an amateur astronomer in Montataire (Oise, France) observed a bright point in the sky that appeared to be moving. Using his telescope, he recorded the phenomenon, which is confirmed by the footage. Although no further details about the object’s shape, size, or trajectory are available, the use of an astronomical instrument lends some credibility to the observation. This case was classified as "C" by the GEIPAN, indicating an unexplained sighting. The nature of the event remains unresolved, but the recording is a valuable piece of evidence for researchers.
