Orange balls over Trovillé-sur-Mer

Summary

A French citizen observed several glowing balls in the early morning of April 7, 2013, from his window. The lights, orange in color and the size of a basketball, moved silently westward. The witness recorded a video showing five additional lights following the same trajectory, totaling eight balls. The GEIPAN concluded these were Thai lanterns, likely released after a private celebration. The east wind in the area supports this explanation. The witness's video, especially from the third minute, clearly confirms this hypothesis.
