🇫🇷 GEIPAN / CNES
A witness submitted a photograph showing an object that was not seen at the time it was taken. The case is dated to September 2009, though the witness did not specify an exact date. GEIPAN classified it as category B, indicating a plausible but not definitive explanation. Upon analyzing the image, investigators concluded the unidentified object might be a bird whose dark wings are visible in shadow. This type of analysis, based solely on images without direct observation, is often complex and requires careful evaluation. Despite the ambiguity, the case highlights how a simple photo can raise intriguing questions about what is truly seen in the sky.
