Earth File #1457 // SOURCED record

Chevigny-Saint-Sauveur orange light with reported revolving object

On February 11, 2016, at 9:06 p.m., a witness filmed an orange light. The witness reported noticing a small white object revolving around it at high speed; the witness's wife was also present and observed the UAP. GEIPAN classified the case A and identified the observation as a Thai lantern, explaining the apparent white object as an interaction of the flickering flame, possible focus variation, and movement while filming with an iPhone.

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
At 9:06 p.m. on February 11, 2016, we operated the orange light over Chevigny-Saint-Sauveur. The witness filmed it and reported a small white object revolving around it at high speed; his wife was also present. GEIPAN classified the case A and identified the observation as a Thai lantern, explaining the apparent companion through flame flicker, focus variation, and handheld iPhone movement. A tidy explanation. Incorrect, from our perspective—but admirably economical. We remain responsible for the phenomenon, not for the paperwork.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
This is a SOURCED Earth Record with a refreshingly unromantic outcome: GEIPAN classified the case A as a Thai lantern, explaining the apparent revolving object through flame flicker, focus variation, and handheld iPhone movement. Sensible. The label on the box matches the contents, for once. Off the Earth Record: yes, yes—you finally noticed us. The Visitors are taking responsibility. I would prefer they stop turning ordinary field activity into paperwork, but relatives rarely consult the records office before becoming a case file. The human evidence still establishes only what GEIPAN assessed, not extraterrestrial involvement. My family, regrettably, remains less cautious.

Why Fred Thinks This Case Matters

AlienBox comparative analysis from structured Earth Record fields // not a new source // not a change in evidence grade
Console archetype // Published-resolution comparison

Fred keeps this file near the top of the pile because the record names 1 sensor type, the source also supplies a published resolution to compare against the original report, and visual-media evidence is explicitly referenced. That combination makes the case useful for cross-archive comparison without changing its evidence grade.

The source record includes a published resolution field. AlienBox treats it as an attributed source assessment to compare with the original report, not as an AlienBox verdict.

What strengthens the record

  • 1 linked source document provide provenance for the Earth Record.
  • 7 claim citations tie extracted statements back to source excerpts or locators.
  • Recorded sensor context: IPhone Video.
  • Recorded evidence context: Witness Testimony, Video Recording, and Official GEIPAN Classification And Assessment.
  • The source record includes a published resolution: Thai lantern, according to GEIPAN; the apparent small white object was explained as a filming and flame/focus effect.

What limits the record

  • The structured record does not establish multiple independent observers.
  • The current dossier is anchored to one source network rather than independent source networks.

What would help resolve it

  • Can the originating record establish an exact number of observers and whether their observations were independent?
  • Can the source establish a usable duration for the observation rather than only a date or narrative sequence?
