Open this case in the interactive AtlasCase description
On 25 August 1980 between 21:25 and 22:00, several witnesses saw a luminous phenomenon in the sky. A coloured circular shape moved without any particular sound being heard. Witnesses in the town lost sight of it behind buildings. The observation was very brief, but the witnesses said the object emitted rays of light. The Pic du Midi Observatory was contacted, but it had detected nothing unusual. GEIPAN considered an atmospheric entry probable.
