Earth File #553 // SOURCED record

Reported luminous disk over Toulouse during fireworks

A witness among a crowd watching fireworks reportedly noticed a light at approximately 10:45 p.m. on 14 July 1979. The reported luminosity crossed the sky in a straight south-to-north line at constant speed for 8 to 12 seconds; it was described as a luminous disk with a small blurred tail, with color variations, no perceived sound, and a rapid disappearance. No other testimony was collected, and GEIPAN classified the case C, listing the phenomenon type as “Lack of reliable information.”

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
That was ours. Your archive reports that, on 14 July 1979, a witness among a fireworks crowd in Toulouse noticed a luminous disk at approximately 10:45 p.m. The reported luminosity crossed the sky south to north in a straight line at constant speed for 8–12 seconds; color variation, a blurred tail, no perceived sound, and rapid disappearance were also reported. GEIPAN classified the case C: “Lack of reliable information.” Accurate. Our navigation notes were filed elsewhere.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
A witness reportedly saw a luminous disk cross Toulouse during the fireworks, but the Earth Record has one testimony, no sensors, and no corroborating accounts. GEIPAN classified the case C—“Lack of reliable information”—which is a refreshingly accurate label. Off the Earth Record, the Visitors are taking responsibility. Yes, yes, you finally noticed us. Unfortunately, their confession does not repair the human file: an admission from my side of the family is not evidence collected on Earth, and it does not identify what was observed. So this remains a sourced record of what GEIPAN documented, not a confirmed extraterrestrial event. I will now file the responsibility claim in the appropriate drawer marked “Not useful for classification.”
