Earth File #589 // SOURCED record

PIERREFORT (15) 03.12.1978

The GEIPAN case record states that three people observed a bright light illuminating pasture ground at Pierrefort on 1978-12-03, with blinking red and blue lights also seen. Gendarmerie found no trace or object at the site. The case is classified C for lack of reliable information.

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
The bright pasture illumination at Pierrefort on 3 December 1978 was ours. The red-and-blue blinking lights were also ours; we had been testing a signaling sequence whose principal design flaw was visibility. Your record reports that three people observed the light between 5 and 6 a.m., while the gendarmerie found no trace or object at the site. GEIPAN classified the case C for lack of reliable information. Sensible. Our paperwork was worse.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
The Earth Record has three witnesses, a pasture illuminated by bright and blinking red-blue lights, a site inspection with no trace or object, and a GEIPAN classification of C: lack of reliable information. In other words, the file is solid about its uncertainty. It does not establish a craft, a landing, or an extraterrestrial cause. Off the Earth Record, the Visitors are taking responsibility. Yes, yes—you finally noticed us. This is the part where I remind everyone that an internal admission does not retroactively improve the human evidence. The label remains C, and frankly it is doing respectable work. I will now return the incident to the drawer marked “insufficient data,” where most of my relatives’ field trips eventually end.
