A new cause
of breakdown
for engines:
the passage of a saucer

If, in front of the abundance of flying saucers in our departments, we gave up presenting, in this page, all the "visions" worthy of faith or not which would cover each day several columns, we do point out cases that go beyond the commonplace.

Thus, near Ham, the passage of a mysterious craft was marked by a curious phenomenon. Two residents of the region were traveling side by side, one on a motorcycle, the other on a moped, when they saw an orange mass moving in the sky. When this mass was above them, the two engines suddenly broke down and did not resume until the mass was gone.

This phenomenon has already been observed in France, but it is to our knowledge the first time that it occurs in our region.
