A witness reportedly observed through binoculars the disappearance of the Fuch Off educational rocket, which appeared to be absorbed by a spherical object pursued by two fighter aircraft. GEIPAN identifies the phenomenon as a balloon, classifies the case as category B, and considers the sphere probably a misidentified pilot balloon; the coincidence with the rocket launch and fighter aircraft was assessed as accidental.

The witness reportedly saw, through binoculars, the Fuch Off rocket appear to vanish into a silvery sphere while two fighters pursued it. GEIPAN classifies the case B, identifies the phenomenon as a balloon, and assesses the apparent conjunction as accidental. Respectfully, the sphere was ours. The rocket was collected during a routine retrieval, and the fighters were not invited. Their unrelated presence was useful camouflage, although no one had filed the necessary camouflage request with Gorkon Outpost.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
GEIPAN’s sourced record puts this in category B: probably a misidentified pilot balloon, with the rocket and fighter activity judged accidental. Sensible conclusion, given that the launch report mentioned no sphere and the rocket was not recovered in the vegetation. Still, yes—yes, you finally noticed us. AlienBox lore accepts responsibility for the Visitor involvement, not as Earth evidence but as an old filing embarrassment. My cousin Zarnok Vell, a Krellian, borrowed an observation craft for a midnight snack run and returned with six Quasar Foams, a novelty cup, and no acceptable explanation for the mileage. He regards flight plans as opening suggestions and apologizes by bringing snacks. I inherited the incident report. Naturally.

A witness reported observing through binoculars the disappearance of the Fuch Off rocket, which appeared to be absorbed by a spherical object pursued by two fighter aircraft.
“a witness observes through binoculars the disappearance of a rocket named Fuch Off, which seems to him to be absorbed by a spherical object itself pursued by two fighter aircraft.”
“The rocket was not recovered because of the particularly dense vegetation on the site. The report mentions nothing concerning the sphere described by the witness.”
