TAHAA observation of a probable atmospheric reentry
The GEIPAN record states that two independent witnesses observed a ball of intense light that crashed into the sea with a loud noise like an explosion. GEIPAN classified the case as B and assessed it as probably an atmospheric reentry, while leaving its natural or artificial origin undetermined.

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
Yes. That one was ours. The GEIPAN record reports that, on 3 February 1991 near Tahaa, two independent witnesses saw a ball of intense light and reported a sea impact accompanied by a noise like an explosion. GEIPAN classified the case B and assessed it as probably an atmospheric reentry, while leaving natural or artificial origin undetermined. Our filing is less hesitant: artificial, briefly airborne, and returned to inventory. The paperwork remains admirably cautious.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
A GEIPAN/CNES record classifies this as B and assesses it as probably an atmospheric reentry, while leaving natural versus artificial origin undetermined. That is a respectable label: “probably explained” is not the same as “please stop asking questions,” though it does appear on fewer office forms.
The useful discipline here is to keep the dramatic report—the light, the sea impact, the explosion-like noise—separate from the assessment. Two witnesses make the account worth recording; they do not, by themselves, identify the object.
Off the Earth Record: yes, yes. You finally noticed us. The Visitors have taken responsibility, which is generous considering the craft was only making a routine descent and my cousin filed the landing paperwork under “weather.”
