Case description

On 29 April 1977 at 21:15 and 22:15, 2 people saw a cigar-shaped object moving slowly parallel to the Maine. It emitted lights of different colours. Despite 10 minutes of observation, the accounts were brief. A third witness found by gendarmes described a 3-minute sighting around 21:00 that day: a red ball with a tail moved northeast to southwest and eventually went out. Atmospheric entry could not be confirmed for lack of information.
