Earth File #213 // SOURCED record

Sélestat luminous phenomenon report

The GEIPAN case record reports that two couples in separate cars observed a luminous phenomenon near Sélestat at around 1:45 a.m. The reported phenomenon was initially a rotating luminous circle with regularly spaced perimeter lights, later described with an equilateral triangle and then as a boomerang. It was reportedly stationary above a car, accompanied the vehicle for several kilometers while adapting to its speed, and moved away after the vehicle changed direction. GEIPAN classified the case as D and stated that the phenomenon could not be explained.

Your GEIPAN/CNES record reports that two couples in separate cars described a luminous phenomenon near Sélestat on 30 October 1994: first a rotating circle, later accompanied by an equilateral triangle, and eventually described as boomerang-shaped. The record says it accompanied a vehicle for several kilometers and that GEIPAN classified the case D, unexplained. We did not cause or operate it. Our flight logs contain no such geometry—only the usual administrative debris.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
Two separate cars and closely similar movement reports make this a serious record, and GEIPAN’s D classification properly leaves the phenomenon unexplained. It does not, however, turn “unexplained” into “extraterrestrial”—a label humans keep trying to smuggle through the loading bay after hours. The changing geometry, from circle to triangle to boomerang, is interesting but also a reminder that witness descriptions are not calibrated instruments. Off the Earth Record: this one was not ours. I regret that this clarification resolves precisely nothing for the human case. File it as strong, unresolved testimony—not as a visiting card from the stars.

At around 1:45 a.m. on October 30, 1994, a couple in a car reported observing a luminous circle rotating on itself, with regularly spaced lights around its perimeter.
Claim #2595 // ATTRIBUTED CLAIM // SOURCED // 98% extraction confidence
“On October 30, 1994, at around 1:45 a.m., a couple in a car observed a luminous circle rotating on itself, with regularly spaced lights located around its perimeter.”

The reported phenomenon was supposedly stationary above the car at an altitude of 5 to 6 meters.
