🇫🇷 GEIPAN / CNES
A UFO case classified as B by GEIPAN in France was recorded on April 23, 2008, in the Loire-Atlantique region. A witness discovered, while reviewing photos taken near a beach, the presence of objects she couldn't explain. In the first image, a silhouette with a body and wings is clearly visible, suggesting the presence of a bird. The second photo, though less clear, is believed to show the same phenomenon. However, after the case was published and a new witness provided input, the object in the second photo was identified as a frisbee, also visible in the hand of a person in the modified first photo. Despite this clarification, the case remains classified as B due to the likely observation of a bird in the first image.
Initial confusion between fast-moving objects like birds or toys is common in low-quality or unprepared photographs. This case illustrates how collaboration among witnesses can help clarify doubts. Although the frisbee was identified, the presence of a bird in the first image keeps the case classified as B. GEIPAN continues analyzing such events to differentiate between natural phenomena and unexplained observations, always maintaining a rigorous and open approach.
