Lannilis 1985, filmed luminous ball remains unexplained

Summary

At around 21:30 on a February 1985 evening, several witnesses in Lannilis, Finistère, saw a bright white luminous ball moving slowly at low altitude. Its circular shape and size, far larger than a star, drew immediate attention. The object vanished quickly, but the witnesses managed to record it on video. Despite this footage, GEIPAN could not determine whether it was a celestial body or another phenomenon due to the lack of precise data. The case was classified C — unexplained.
