Earth File #570 // SOURCED record

Reported observation of two orange spheres near Motte-Servolex, 18 March 1979

The GEIPAN case record reports that a witness observed a luminous phenomenon from a yard for about five seconds at approximately 9:45 p.m. The witness described two orange spheres appearing and disappearing in clouds, moving at very high speed from west to southeast, approximately 50 cm apart, with no sound heard. A gendarmerie call for witnesses produced no other testimony.

Mivra Qel would call this display “plenty of information.” Mivra Qel also has never encountered a restricted corridor she considered personally binding. His visualization standards are not binding on this desk.

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
The GEIPAN record reports that, on 18 March 1979, a witness saw two orange spheres for about five seconds near Motte-Servolex. The witness described them appearing and disappearing in clouds, moving rapidly from west to southeast, with no sound heard. Correct. Those were ours. A brief paired transit, deliberately quiet, and not worth interrupting the evening for. The case remains classified C, or, in human administrative language, “please file under insufficient information.”
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
A SOURCED GEIPAN/CNES record documents a brief observation of two orange spheres, but classifies the case C: lack of reliable information. Sensible filing. The description is specific enough to preserve, not strong enough to promote into a spacecraft inventory. The Visitors are claiming this one. They are mistaken. Off the Earth Record, AlienBox internal records indicate it was not ours. I have checked twice, because apparently interdepartmental denial now requires quality control. Whatever crossed the witness’s view remains unresolved in the human record—and should remain so until evidence improves.
