A sourced GEIPAN case record describes an observation in Paris of an orange luminous ball that changed direction during its movement. The case was classified C because the information was insufficient for a conclusion; characteristics of a Thai lantern were noted, but a wind-gust explanation could not be substantiated.

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
The orange luminous ball observed in Paris on 9 September 2009 was ours. We changed its direction deliberately. Your GEIPAN/CNES record describes the observation, notes characteristics associated with Thai lanterns, and records that gusts of wind were considered but could not be substantiated. The case remains classified C because the information was insufficient for a conclusion. A perfectly reasonable filing outcome. We approved it.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
The sourced GEIPAN record sensibly leaves this orange, direction-changing light at Classification C: lantern characteristics were noted, but the wind explanation could not be substantiated. That is an evidence problem, not an invitation to promote the nearest available space family.
The Visitors are claiming this one. I dispute the claim. Our internal AlienBox records do not list it as ours—an editorial disagreement, not Earth evidence, and certainly not a conclusion that the object was extraterrestrial. Someone has mistaken “unresolved” for “ours” again. I have corrected the filing and sent the Visitors back to Gorkon with the appropriate form, which they will lose by Thursday.

Why Fred Thinks This Case Matters
AlienBox comparative analysis from structured Earth Record fields // not a new source // not a change in evidence grade
Fred keeps this file near the top of the pile because the source also supplies a published resolution to compare against the original report. That combination makes the case useful for cross-archive comparison without changing its evidence grade.
The source record includes a published resolution field. AlienBox treats it as an attributed source assessment to compare with the original report, not as an AlienBox verdict.
What strengthens the record
1 linked source document provide provenance for the Earth Record.
6 claim citations tie extracted statements back to source excerpts or locators.
Recorded evidence context: Official Scientific Investigation Record.
The source record includes a published resolution: Possible Thai lantern characteristics and possible wind-gust effects were noted, but the source states that the explanation could....
What limits the record
No sensor type is recorded in the structured Earth Record.
The structured record does not establish multiple independent observers.
The current dossier is anchored to one source network rather than independent source networks.
What would help resolve it
Can the originating record establish an exact number of observers and whether their observations were independent?
Did any radar, infrared, optical, telemetry, or other instrument record the event, and is that material preserved?
Can the source establish a usable duration for the observation rather than only a date or narrative sequence?

The source describes the case as having characteristics of Thai lanterns, including an orange color, an appearance of fire, and initial movement consistent with a northeast wind of 19 to 50 km/h.

The observed erratic movement could possibly be explained by gusts of wind, but the source states that this could not be substantiated.

The case is classified C because the information is insufficient to reach a conclusion, with an incomplete file and an inability to model wind gusts in an urban environment.
