PARISOT (81) 26.07.2012

Around 26 July 2012 at about 22:00 in Parisot (81), 2 witnesses saw 3 lights—2 white and 1 blue—at the points of a grey triangle passing overhead. The source summary specifies a straight south-southwest to north-northeast path. GEIPAN rates 3 lights crossing in a straight line as moderately strange, since 3 satellites could pass together. However, the witnesses insist they perceived a dark triangle between the lights, which would increase strangeness. GEIPAN could not establish a clear match to known satellites despite considering 2 candidates. Evidential substance is moderate: the witnesses are not independent, there are no photographs or videos, and the date remains somewhat uncertain. The case is classified C for insufficient information.
