Case description

On 24 August 2010 at 01:30, a witness in Bailleval (60) saw an unfamiliar light in the sky. Its features matched a planet and presented no unusual characteristics. Jupiter occupied the reported sky region at the relevant date and time, and characteristic photographs confirmed the identification. Although there was only 1 account, it was detailed, high quality and considered different hypotheses, providing good evidential support. GEIPAN classifies the case A: observation of Jupiter.
