What the record resolves

A silhouette

A shape, a height, a number of figures. Nothing that resolves a body.

Five silhouettes near a craft on the ground. Nothing further.

The record

An official file preserves that a report was made and examined. It does not, by itself, establish what was seen.

The document is attached to this entry.

What is not settled

GEIPAN class C means the file is too thin to assess. Date not fixed to a day, one witness, collection date unknown. A genuine official record of a claim, not evidence for the claim.
