Earth File #565 // SOURCED record

Reported luminous point observation at Châteaugiron

The GEIPAN record reports that witnesses observed a luminous point moving in the sky on 15 April 1979 at around 10:45 p.m. It reportedly became stationary, changed color, and sparkled; gendarmes reportedly observed a star-sized luminous point moving slowly eastward. GEIPAN classified the case as B and assessed the observation as most probably astronomical, perhaps Vega.

Off-record desk banter // not case attribution
Tovin Raal would call this display “plenty of information.” Tovin Raal also can turn a routine observation pass into an incident report without visibly trying. His visualization standards are not binding on this desk.

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
Your GEIPAN archive reports that witnesses at Châteaugiron saw a luminous point move, pause, change color, and sparkle on 15 April 1979. The record also says gendarmes observed a star-sized point moving slowly eastward. GEIPAN classified the case B and assessed it as most probably astronomical, perhaps Vega. We cannot improve this paperwork: we do not recognize the reported phenomenon either. Its file remains more informative than our instruments, which is an irritating reversal.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
**Fred’s Note:** This is a SOURCED Earth Record, and GEIPAN classified it B while assessing the observation as most probably astronomical, perhaps Vega. Sensible enough. The file also notes that direction and altitude are lacking, which makes confident reconstruction rather difficult—an observation can be interesting without becoming a vehicle manifest. The reported movement, stillness, color change, and sparkle remain observations, not proof of anything exotic. Off the Earth Record: even we do not recognize this one. I dislike unresolved files, particularly when nobody can be blamed for the paperwork. For once, the mystery is genuinely mutual.
