UFO Lights in Colomiers in May 2013

Summary

In May 2013, three people in Colomiers, France, observed three orange lights in the sky. The witnesses, including a UFO enthusiast, saw the objects over three consecutive nights, between 9:00 and 10:00 PM. The lights, moving slowly westward, were silent and at low altitude. Although two witnesses used binoculars, descriptions varied, leading to some confusion. The official report notes that the consistency of the testimonies is low, with contradictions between accounts and a two-year delay in reporting the observation.

The GEIPAN classified the case as "C" due to a lack of reliable information. Although the phenomenon has no clear explanation, investigators considered the testimonies inconsistent. The main witness, interested in UFOs since adolescence, did not take photos or contact other witnesses, raising doubts about the authenticity of the experience. Additionally, his reluctance to report the case immediately and contradictions between testimonies suggest the perception of something "strange" may have been exaggerated over time. In summary, while intriguing, the lack of solid evidence prevents a higher classification.
