In November 2009, a witness in Mundolsheim, France, noticed a series of light spots and one darker spot while exploring Google Maps. These marks were not real objects, but photographic artifacts—defects that appear in images and can be caused by dust, dirt, or lens reflections. Although the witness did not specify the exact date or time, the case was classified as "A" by the GEIPAN, indicating a noteworthy observation. While such reports do not confirm the presence of unidentified objects, they are useful for understanding the limits of perception and technology.
