ALSACAT:

ALSACAT is my comprehensive catalog of UFO sighting reports in Alsace, the region is the North-East of France, whether they are "explained" or "unexplained".

The ALSACAT catalog is made of case files with a case number, summary, quantitative information (date, location, number of witnesses...), classifications, all sources mentioning the case with their references, a discussion of the case in order to evaluate its causes, and a history of the changes made to the file. A general index and thematic sub-catalogs give access to these Alsatian case files.

Please refer to the previous case file in Sarre-Union, on July 11, 2014, for more information about the Zeppelin airship of the Airship-Paris company.

Map.

There are 100 km from Louvigny to Phalsbourg in straight line.

Evaluation:
