Evidence typeswitness report, technical observation details, no image
The case concerns a witness observation on January 9, 2022, at 7:53 p.m., involving two white luminous points observed toward Betelgeuse using an A2-GTI mount equipped with a Nikon P1000.
Claim #7622 // ATTRIBUTED CLAIM // SOURCED // 99% extraction confidence
“On January 9, 2022, at 7:53 p.m., a witness engrossed in an astronomical observation of the Moon, using an A2-GTI mount equipped with a Nikon P1000, observes two white luminous points toward the red star Betelgeuse, appearing fixed at the height of that star.”

// [[T0001]] Description paragraph
The witness reported that the two UAPs moved toward the right, in the SSE direction, changed to an orange hue and a more or less spherical shape, and disappeared gradually; the observation lasted a few seconds.
Claim #7623 // ATTRIBUTED CLAIM // SOURCED // 99% extraction confidence
“The movement is slow. The two UAPs disappear by gradually going out. The observation lasted a few seconds.”

The case report describes the observation as having a single witness, no image, and some technical details concerning shape, color, and movement direction.
Claim #7624 // FACTUAL CLAIM // SOURCED // 99% extraction confidence
“The case offers average consistency: a single witness, no image, but some technical details (shape, color, direction of movement).”

GEIPAN assessed the reported strangeness as fairly low and stated that the appearance, shape, disappearance behavior, colors, weather, time, and day pointed toward celestial lanterns or LED light balloons.
Claim #7625 // ASSESSMENT // SOURCED // 99% extraction confidence
“After our study, the strangeness is fairly low (see the investigation report).”

GEIPAN favored the celestial-lantern hypothesis, also described as flying lanterns or Thai lanterns, because of the orange color and extinguishing behavior.
Claim #7626 // ASSESSMENT // SOURCED // 99% extraction confidence
“The orange color and the extinguishing lead us to favor the hypothesis of celestial lanterns (or flying lanterns or Thai lanterns).”

// [[T0002]] Description continuation
GEIPAN classified the case as B, meaning a probable observation of celestial lanterns, flying lanterns, or Thai lanterns.
Claim #7627 // FACTUAL CLAIM // SOURCED // 99% extraction confidence
“GEIPAN classifies it as B: probable observation of celestial lanterns (or flying lanterns or Thai lanterns).”

The report states that the observed movement did not perfectly correspond to wind data from a weather station 8 km from the witness and offers low wind speed, gusts, and flight over a city as possible explanations.
Claim #7628 // ASSESSMENT // SOURCED // 99% extraction confidence
“The direction of movement of the UAPs does not perfectly correspond to the wind data from the weather station, located 8 km from the witness’s position, which may be explained by the very low wind speed, gusts, and the flight over a city, all of which can lead to changes in orientation.”
