Nightclub Projector Mistaken for UFO in Conques-sur-Orbiel

Summary

At 3:30 a.m. on April 30, 1995, a couple in Conques-sur-Orbiel noticed a bright luminous mass with multiple light points moving across the sky. The sighting initially caused alarm, but investigators traced the phenomenon to a projector at a nearby nightclub called "Sky Rose," whose light was visible for several kilometers due to favorable atmospheric conditions. GEIPAN classified the case as B, resolved with a conventional explanation. It illustrates how entertainment lighting can produce convincing aerial sightings when observers are unaware of the source.
