Conflans-Sainte-Honorine 2010, Orange Balls in the Sky

Summary

On June 13, 2010, at midnight, a witness in Conflans-Sainte-Honorine observed orange glowing spheres gradually appearing in the sky. Between 15 and 20 of these lights moved quickly and silently before disappearing as they ascended. The witness's description precisely matches the release of Thai lanterns. These objects move gently, following the wind direction, and fade away after a few minutes. The time and date also align with typical events of this kind.

The case was classified as "B," indicating a probable observation of Thai lanterns. Despite the mysterious appearance, meteorological data and the witness's account point to a terrestrial explanation. This case is an example of how the ordinary can seem extraordinary under certain conditions.
