On the night from Sunday to Monday, that is, from October 25 to 26, a luminous disk high up in the sky was seen by residents of Orzy and Anchamps, near Revin.
It was reportedly around midnight when a small luminous disk appeared in the sky above the hamlet of Anchamps. According to eyewitnesses, this strange disk moved quickly, making sudden, sharp, and vertical trajectories. At times, its entire surface lit up, taking on violet or green hues.
Sometimes, its luminous surface shrank, leaving only a small phosphorescent dot surrounded by a halo of vapor.
According to some, it remained visible for more than two hours and could be observed through binoculars.
After this long duration, it disappeared at an astonishing speed.
Additionally, a female resident of Revin, whose sincerity is beyond doubt, saw a luminous disk on Monday evening around 9 p.m. over Fallières. At one time, the disk vanished, leaving behind a spray of sparks in all colors, similar to a fireworks display. The witness stated that they heard a noise comparable to the sound of a tire bursting.
Who can determine the exact nature of these objects and the reasons for their appearance in the sky over Revin?
