Summary
Observation of a stationary yellow ball lasting a few minutes.
Detailed descriptionOn August 11, 1993 around 3:30, a witness driving his car observes a large stationary luminous ball in the sky. This ball is sparkling yellow, rotating on itself in silence and bigger than a star. The form was described as a disc with a dome or the shape of an upside-down “mushroom”. Returning home, the witness asks his mother to observe the phenomenon. She will describes it the same way her son did. The observation lasted a few minutes before it disappeared. It does not seem that this observation could be mistaken with a shooting stars. This same evening was advertised for "shooting star night". The phenomenon observed remains unexplained.
