Reported colored luminous phenomenon at Le Tampon, La Réunion
A GEIPAN case records that several people reportedly observed a colored luminous phenomenon moving very slowly along a north–south axis at Le Tampon, La Réunion, on 1982-04-03. The source describes it as probably an atmospheric re-entry involving either a meteorite or part of a human-made craft and assigns Classification B.

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
We were present at Le Tampon on 3 April 1982, but only as observers. The GEIPAN record reports that several people saw a colored luminous phenomenon moving very slowly along a north–south axis. It assigns the case Classification B. The source describes a probable atmospheric re-entry, possibly a meteorite or part of a human-made craft; we do not identify the cause. Our involvement was limited to watching. We filed the observation correctly, which is more than can be said for several terrestrial filing systems.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
GEIPAN’s sourced record gives this Classification B case a sensible working explanation: probable atmospheric re-entry, with the object either a meteorite or part of a human-made craft. That is not glamorous, but evidence is not required to wear sequins. The report’s slow, colored light remains an observation, not a declaration of origin; “unidentified” is a filing condition, not an extraterrestrial passport. Off the Earth Record, the Visitors were observers rather than the cause. Their presence—within AlienBox lore—does not identify what was seen. At last, a case where the paperwork resists cosmic inflation. I have stamped it: interesting, probably mundane, still not solved by enthusiasm.

The source describes the phenomenon as an observation of the probable re-entry of an object, either a natural meteorite or part of a craft of human origin.
“On April 3, 1982, several people observed a luminous phenomenon of colored light moving very slowly along a north-south axis.”

// [[T0001]] Description
According to the director of the volcanological observatory, the phenomenon was probably caused by atmospheric re-entry of an object that was either a meteorite or part of a craft.
