Location: Nouzonville, France
On
January 9, 1994 about 19:30, a young woman and her friend
in the car observe a luminous rectangular form in the
sky. Having stopped their vehicle, they observe this form
which is illuminated with white and red lights. Having
lost sight of the object, they go in the car to find a
better point of observation. Again stopped, the young
woman observes an oval-shaped form with the same red and
white lights which then seems to come in her direction.

She feels fear, and request with her companion, who did
not see this last observation, to set out again as fast
as possible. No explanation could be found with this silent
phenomenon which remained unexplained.

The
original summary in French:
Le
09 janvier 1994 vers 1930, une jeune femme et son ami
en voiture observent une forme rectangulaire lumineuse
dans le ciel. Ayant arrêté leur véhicule,
ils observent cette forme qui est éclairée
de lumières blanches et rouges. L'ayant perdu de
vue, ils remontent en voiture pour trouver un meilleur
point d'observation. De nouveau arrêté, la
jeune femme voit alors une forme ovoïde avec les
mêmes lumières rouges et blanches qui semble
venir dans sa direction. Elle prend peur et demande à
son compagnon, qui n'a pas vu cette dernière observation,
de repartir au plus vite. Aucune explication n'a pu être
trouvée à ce phénomène silencieux
qui est resté inexpliqué.
