Spherical UFO photographed in Alpes-Maritimes

Summary

On May 16, 2014, at 21:15, a witness took two photos of a white, spherical luminous phenomenon in the Alpes-Maritimes. The object appeared and disappeared, drawing the observer's attention for five minutes. Although the witness provided the photos, the video footage was not received, and no other testimonies were reported. After the investigation, it was concluded that the phenomenon matched the approach path of aircraft near Nice Airport. The altitude and distance from the observer indicated that only the landing lights of a commercial plane were visible. Therefore, the case was classified as "A", meaning a certain observation of an airplane landing.
