BEUSTE (64) — luminous sky phenomenon, 23 August 2015
A sourced GEIPAN record concerns two witnesses who observed a luminous phenomenon crossing the night sky at a constant speed at 10:25 p.m. on 23 August 2015. The reported object changed direction slightly several times, moving north, then northwest, and finally north. GEIPAN classified the case A as a satellite misidentification; the IGS 5 H2A rocket and Iridium 16 were identified as very probable sources, although the exact satellite identity remains uncertain.

Your GEIPAN record classifies the Beuste observation as a satellite misidentification, with IGS 5 H2A and Iridium 16 listed as very probable sources. The archive remains uncertain about which satellite was involved. This is understandable. The luminous object was ours; the slight changes from north to northwest and back were deliberate course corrections, not orbital confusion. We permitted the satellite explanation to remain on file. It is administratively tidy, and Gorkon Outpost respects tidy filing.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
GEIPAN’s sourced record gives this one a tidy classification: A, a satellite misidentification, with IGS 5 H2A and Iridium 16 considered very probable sources. The exact satellite remains uncertain, which is a perfectly respectable place for a file to stop—better than stapling certainty to the wrong object and calling it analysis.
Off the Earth Record, the Visitors are taking responsibility. Yes, yes. You finally noticed us. I should mention that this does not improve the human evidence; it merely means my relatives have once again turned a routine transit into someone else’s case file. The paperwork is, as usual, mine.

Why Fred Thinks This Case Matters
AlienBox comparative analysis from structured Earth Record fields // not a new source // not a change in evidence grade
Fred keeps this file near the top of the pile because the structured record explicitly indicates multiple witnesses and the source also supplies a published resolution to compare against the original report. 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.
The structured witness field explicitly records multiple observers without inventing a headcount.
Recorded evidence context: Witness Observation and GEIPAN Investigation And Classification.
The source record includes a published resolution: Satellite misidentification; IGS 5 H2A rocket and Iridium 16 were identified as very probable sources, with uncertainty about the....
What limits the record
No sensor type is recorded in the structured Earth Record.
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?
Did any radar, infrared, optical, telemetry, or other instrument record the event, and is that material preserved?
Can the source establish a usable duration for the observation rather than only a date or narrative sequence?

“However, the UAP changed direction slightly several times (north, then northwest, and finally north), which intrigued the observers. Only one questionnaire was completed.”
“two satellites that are very probably the source of this misidentification: IGS 5 H2A rocket, whose luminosity corresponds to that of the UAP and whose trajectory is very close, and Iridium 16, an uncontrolled satellite whose trajectory and apparent speed correspond to those of the UAP.”
