Case description

Official source account — 2019 annual report, printed page 6: A collaborator forwarded a photograph from Las Heras dated 6 January 2019 after it appeared in a news report. CIAE compared the apparent object with a prominent light on a container roof and the optical center of the image. The matching alignment and distances supported an internal lens reflection. The agency classified the case as Type A, definitively explained by its adopted methodology. The summaries distinguish reported observations from the agency’s proposed explanations. Source Type A/B ratings describe explanatory confidence and are not encounter classes. The map uses an approximate GeoNames locality centroid, not the observation point.
