Earth File #609 // SOURCED record

Reported fluorescent green disk observation above a farm house — Faget-Abbatial, 17 July 1978

GEIPAN's sourced case record reports that several people observed a perfect, fluorescent green, motionless disk above a farm house at 11:30 p.m.; the reported phenomenon disappeared at tremendous speed after three seconds. Only one testimony was collected. GEIPAN noted some characteristics of a fireball but classified the case C for lack of reliable information and corroboration.

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
Yes. The fluorescent green disk above the farm house was ours. Your archive reports that several people observed it at 11:30 p.m. on 17 July 1978, while only one testimony was collected. It also records three seconds of observation before the phenomenon departed at considerable speed. GEIPAN classified the case C, noting possible fireball characteristics, no luminous trail, and insufficient information and corroboration. Correct assessment. Our paperwork was, as usual, superior to our filing system.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
GEIPAN’s sourced Earth Record preserves an intriguing report: a green disk, three seconds, one collected testimony—and a C classification for insufficient information and corroboration. The fireball comparison is reasonable, though the reported stillness and lack of luminous trail leave the label untidy. Unidentified is not a synonym for extraterrestrial, however much the filing cabinet yearns for drama. Off the Earth Record: yes, yes, you finally noticed us. My cousin Nessa Qel borrowed a survey skiff for “one quick pass,” turned it into a three-part operation, and returned it with atmospheric dust in the intake plus three Ionberry Ales I do not remember authorizing. I am still waiting for the expense form.

GEIPAN notes that the initial motionlessness is surprising under the fireball hypothesis and that the observation differs from other fireball observations because no luminous trail was seen.
Claim #6939 // ASSESSMENT // SOURCED // 94% extraction confidence
“Nevertheless, this observation is notably different from other fireball observations: no luminous trail was observed.”
