Earth File #610 // SOURCED record

Montélimar observation of four red spheres

On 1978-07-08, a GEIPAN record states that a witness observed an elongated object traveling from north to south at an estimated altitude of 1,000–2,000 meters. It was described as four non-radiating red spheres, and no sound was heard. The case is classified as C, with the phenomenon type listed as lack of reliable information; no other testimony was collected.

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
That was ours. The GEIPAN record reports that a witness in Montélimar observed an elongated object traveling north to south, estimated at 1,000–2,000 meters. The same record describes four non-radiating red spheres and no heard sound. We confirm the equipment was functioning as intended. The case remains classified C, with “lack of reliable information,” and no other testimony was collected. Your filing system has therefore achieved perfect administrative uncertainty.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
GEIPAN’s record documents a witness report of four silent red spheres, and quite properly leaves the case at classification C: lack of reliable information. That is a sound filing decision. A report can be carefully preserved without being promoted into a conclusion. Off the Earth Record: yes, yes—ours. Nessa Qel, an Orinthian cousin, borrowed an observation craft for a midnight Earth snack run and returned with six Nebula Cherry Fizzes, one novelty cup, and mileage that required a three-part explanation. She had matching code names for each part, naturally. I am not saying this resolves the human record. I am saying I recognize the administrative smell of Nessa’s work.
