Saturday evening, around 9:30 p.m., a gleam crossed the sky of the region. It seemed to come from the direction of Laon and was leaving at high speed towards Frières-Faillouët. Are we in the presence of an atmospheric phenomenon or is it a saucer? This phenomenon was observed by trustworthy people Mr. Joseph Thierry told us to have seen a craft being at approximately 200 or 300 meters of altitude and having the shape of a funnel. An intense glow followed it. The craft was heading towards Frières-Faillouët. Mr. Dr. Cerf and Mr. Bouché who were with Mr. Thierry also observed this phenomenon.
People who were on the road to Frières have the same observation.
Saucer, funnel, who says (or will see) better?
