Bright silent point of light over Chamalières

Summary

At around 10:40 p.m. on 9 August 1997, a witness and his nephew in Chamalières (Puy-de-Dôme) observed a very bright point of light moving slowly across the sky for 30 to 40 seconds without making any sound. Available information is limited, and investigators suggested a distant aircraft or satellite as possible explanations. The case remains without a definitive resolution.
