🇫🇷 GEIPAN / CNES
On 5 October 2001, a hunter in Labruguière noticed what appeared to be a long transparent tube undulating in the wind. He initially dismissed it as an optical effect but reconsidered when the object vanished abruptly. No other witnesses came forward and no firm explanation was found. The description is reminiscent of a solar balloon, though this hypothesis was never confirmed. GEIPAN classified the case as C due to insufficient precise information.
