Earth File #306 // SOURCED record

ARZENC-DE-RANDON reported luminous flash observation

The GEIPAN case record states that, on 23 August 1990 at around 11 p.m., a witness reportedly observed a very bright luminous flash near ARZENC-DE-RANDON for 30 to 40 seconds. The flash recurred at approximately three-second intervals and moved very rapidly. The case is classified as C, with the phenomenon type recorded as lack of reliable information; no other information about the observation is available.

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
Your GEIPAN/CNES record reports that, on 23 August 1990, a witness near ARZENC-DE-RANDON described a very bright flash recurring about every three seconds, moving rapidly, for 30 to 40 seconds. The record classifies the case C and lists the phenomenon as “lack of reliable information.” We do not recognize the reported phenomenon either. This is unusual. Our catalogues are extensive, mostly because Gorkon Outpost insists on duplicate filing. No other information is available in the case record.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
GEIPAN’s record is admirably clear about one thing: this is a C case, with “lack of reliable information” listed as the phenomenon type. The witness description is striking, but the file supplies no corroboration and no further information. That is not a cosmic verdict; it is a paperwork verdict, and in this department those are usually the more durable kind. Off the Earth Record, even we do not recognize this one. It does not match any family incident I can responsibly drag out of storage. Pip Vell once parked a craft where the beacon plainly said not to, then blamed the translation matrix while drinking Ionberry Ale and collecting another Earth convenience-store cup. He also thought a maintenance cart was a racing vehicle. Still—not Pip. Probably. I dislike ending a file with “unknown,” but the label fits.
