SALLANCHES (74) 10.06.2010

Summary

On June 10, 2010, a witness in Sallanches observed an unusual bright point from their terrace. The object remained stationary for about 15 minutes in the southeast before moving northeast and disappearing behind the landscape. The gendarmerie attempted an investigation but failed to contact the main witness or any others mentioned in the report. No contact information such as a phone number or email was provided, and the time that had passed since the observation made any follow-up difficult. The brief and singular description of the phenomenon does not rule out conventional explanations, such as an aircraft in holding pattern or a balloon with a payload. Without further information, the case was classified as C due to insufficient data.
