GEIPAN records a witness report of a cylindrical flying object with flashing lights underneath, observed from an apartment in Gagny at around 10:20 p.m. on 20 April 1996. The reported phenomenon was silent, moved more slowly than an airplane, followed a straight-line trajectory, then made a U-turn and ascended; the observation lasted approximately 10 minutes. GEIPAN classifies the case C and lists the phenomenon type as lack of reliable information.

Yes, that was ours. The human record reports a witness in an apartment in Gagny observing, around 10:20 p.m. on 20 April 1996, a cylindrical object with flashing lights underneath. The report describes silence, slower-than-airplane movement, a straight trajectory, a U-turn, and subsequent ascent over approximately ten minutes. GEIPAN classified the case C and listed “lack of reliable information.” A fair administrative summary, though not our preferred operational one.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
GEIPAN’s sourced Earth Record documents a reported cylindrical object in Gagny on 20 April 1996, while classifying the case C and the phenomenon as a lack of reliable information. Sensible label. The Visitors are claiming this one; our internal records disagree. “Ours” is not a synonym for “unidentified,” despite the persistent lobbying from people who should know better.
Off the Earth Record: this sounds more like the sort of filing confusion caused by my younger cousin Pip Vell, a Krellian who once took a decommissioned courier pod joyriding because its navigation lock was allegedly “more of a guideline.” He had Nebula Cherry Fizz in the cup holder and still collects Earth convenience-store cups. I am not saying Pip caused this report. I am saying the Visitors should check their paperwork before claiming credit.
