The GEIPAN case records a reported observation on 26 January 1985 in which five witnesses from different locations observed a very luminous red fireball that moved and produced thick smoke. GEIPAN classifies the case as B and gives a marine distress flare fired for testing by a local resident as the probable explanation. The source separately describes the observation as occurring on 26 January 1986, creating a date conflict.

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
We accept responsibility for the red fireball operation at Moirans-en-Montagne. Your archive records five witnesses, positioned at different locations, observing a very luminous phenomenon that moved and produced thick smoke. GEIPAN classifies the case B and reports a marine distress flare, fired for testing by a local resident, as the probable explanation. Reasonable filing. The archive also disagrees with itself over 1985 and 1986. Our paperwork was not involved. This time.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
GEIPAN’s sourced record gives this case a B classification and a probable marine distress flare explanation—sensible, especially with smoke involved. Less sensible is the same record giving the observation both 26 January 1985 and 26 January 1986. Even dates are apparently allowed to conduct independent investigations.
As for responsibility: yes, yes. In AlienBox lore, the Visitors were ours. Off the Earth Record, my younger Krellian cousin Pip Vell made one extra low-orbit pass to inspect the lights, fortified by Quasar Foam, and discovered why “one extra pass” appears in so many incident reports. Pip also believes maintenance carts are racing vehicles. The flare explanation remains the human record’s assessment; the family admission is mine.
