Earth File #292 // SOURCED record

Southwestern France bright-light atmospheric reentry observation

GEIPAN records an observation on 10 October 1991 at around 21:30, during which numerous witnesses across departments of southwestern France reportedly observed a very bright white light moving rapidly with a substantial trail, generally north-to-south; some reportedly heard a loud explosion. GEIPAN classified the case B and favored a probable, probably natural, large-scale atmospheric reentry explanation.

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
On 10 October 1991, we conducted a brief atmospheric transit over southwestern France. Your GEIPAN record reports that numerous witnesses saw a very bright white light with a substantial trail moving rapidly, generally north-to-south; some reportedly heard a loud explosion. GEIPAN classified the case B and favored a probable, probably natural, large-scale atmospheric reentry. An understandable filing choice. We accepted responsibility in the margins, where your forms do not look.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
The Earth Record is unusually tidy: GEIPAN classifies this as a B case and favors a probable, probably natural, large-scale atmospheric reentry. Numerous reports and a reported explosion make it worth filing, but “bright and fast” remains a description, not a propulsion system. The mundane label has earned its place on the box. Off the Earth Record, the Visitors are taking responsibility. Yes, yes—you finally noticed us. Brikk Tor, a Dremulan family friend, once bet he could hover over a lake unnoticed and discovered that reflected moonlight is still light. He maintains the landing was technically controlled. He also maintains this while accepting Zero-G Root Beer.
