Vehicle observes triangle lights near Saint-Nazaire

Summary

On February 5, 2009, two people in a moving car observed three lights—blue, white, and red—forming a floating triangle at an altitude of about 30 to 40 meters above the highway near Saint-Nazaire. The phenomenon was moving slowly and was seen during heavy rain. The GEIPAN received only one eyewitness account via email. Since the observation was made through the car's windshield and the weather conditions were poor, the possibility of reflections could not be ruled out. Moreover, the witness did not respond to the GEIPAN's requests for additional information, making any further investigation impossible due to lack of data.

The case was classified as "C," indicating no clear explanation was found, but it was not considered unusual either. The absence of additional evidence, such as photographs or other witnesses, limited the possibility of a thorough analysis. Cases like this, with few concrete details and adverse weather conditions, are hard to evaluate and often remain classified as "unidentified" due to insufficient information.
