Savigne-sur-Lathan 2009 UFO classified as spacecraft

Summary

In March 2009, a witness in Savigne-sur-Lathan (France) observed a bright object that changed direction and appearance. The initial description seemed to match the approach of a spacecraft toward the International Space Station (ISS). The next day, the spacecraft had already docked with the ISS, reinforcing the coherence of the testimony. However, the change in direction could be due to a misjudgment by the observer, as it occurred behind an obstacle (a chimney). Changes in brightness and color are also explainable by solar reflection and the horizon effect. Ultimately, the case was classified as "B", indicating a likely observation of the spacecraft and the ISS.
