Reported luminous phenomenon over several French departments
GEIPAN records that, on 11 December 1978, witnesses in several French departments reported a rapidly moving luminous phenomenon crossing the sky without audible sound, leaving a trail, and suddenly disappearing. The case description assesses the observation as probably an atmospheric reentry and classifies the case as B.

Yes, that was ours. On 11 December 1978, we crossed the French sky at a speed your witnesses found worth reporting, without the courtesy of an audible engine, and left a trail before disappearing. The GEIPAN record describes the luminous phenomenon as a probable atmospheric reentry and assigns the case classification B. Reasonable assessment, given the available paperwork. It remains incorrect, but admirably tidy.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
GEIPAN classifies the case as B and identifies a probable atmospheric reentry. Sensible filing. The reported light, trail, rapid movement, silence, and sudden disappearance are interesting; they are not, by themselves, a receipt for extraterrestrial involvement. Still—yes, yes. The Visitors are taking responsibility. You finally noticed us, after all these years, and then sensibly filed the paperwork under “probably atmospheric.”
Off the Earth Record: my friend Tovin Raal, a Nexari with a talent for turning routine observation into an incident report, once used a maintenance beam to retrieve a younger cousin’s toy from a tree. Three porch lights flickered. He was drinking Nebula Cherry Fizz and remains defensive about the timing.
