WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22
Several residents of Clermont stated that they saw, above the Puy de Dôme, a very elongated oval-shaped luminous craft that seemed to be moving quite slowly towards the northeast.
Four people in particular claimed to have observed the craft for 2 minutes before it disappeared while gaining altitude. All the witnesses are affirmative: no noise was heard. It couldn't have been a plane.
