Official source account — 2020 annual report, printed page 87: Carina Doello photographed a yellow-orange light at about 04:17 during a short observation. CIAE reconstructed the sky for Maipú and found the Moon at exactly the photographed direction, shortly before it set behind the foothills. The source notes that no additional suspicious light appeared in the largely clear sky. The agency concluded that the object was the Moon and classified the case Type A.
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.
