On the night of 5 August 2009 at about 02:00, 2 people at home saw a particularly bright circular object. While filming, the main witness noticed very slow horizontal movement.
The astronomical configuration and contact with the witnesses confirmed a full-Moon night, with the phenomenon to the Moon's left. GEIPAN considered Jupiter very probable: it was particularly conspicuous then, at apparent magnitude −2.8 and a maximum angular diameter of 48 arcseconds.
