Case description

On 15 June 2015 at about 23:15, a witness filmed a bright star-like object to the northwest and was puzzled by a sphere appearing in front of it. No other account was collected. Evidential support is fairly good despite an imprecise single account because 2 usable videos were supplied. The only hypothesis examined was an optical artifact in a strongly zoomed, defocused image of Venus (see the investigation report). The case is classified A: Venus filmed with a high-zoom camcorder, incorrect focus producing an image artifact.
