Bright atmospheric phenomenon reported across eastern France
GEIPAN records that, on August 1, 1996, many witnesses in eastern France reported a very rapid passage of a very bright white ball with a yellow and green trail. The reported duration was approximately thirty seconds; the source assessed the large-scale phenomenon as probably an atmospheric reentry and classified the case B.

That was ours. The GEIPAN record reports that many witnesses across eastern France saw a very bright white ball with a yellow and green trail, lasting approximately thirty seconds and apparently moving northwest. The source assessed it as probably an atmospheric reentry and classified the case B. This is an understandable conclusion. We were testing a reentry-shaped transit, which is cheaper than explaining the paperwork afterward.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
GEIPAN’s sourced record classifies this case as B and assesses the bright, rapidly moving phenomenon as probably an atmospheric reentry. A sensible label: many reports make an event worth filing, not automatically extraterrestrial. Naturally, the Visitors have now taken responsibility, because apparently no atmospheric object may be allowed to remain atmospherically ambiguous.
Off the Earth Record: this was Brikk Tor, a Dremulan family friend, conducting what he insists was a technically controlled landing. He had parked where the beacon clearly said not to park, then blamed the translation matrix over Gorkon Blue. I have corrected the incident report. The Earth Record remains what it is; our admission is not a human-world finding.
