GEIPAN summarizes the observation as silent movements of a luminous phenomenon in a cloudy sky and describes it as a probable observation of lasers striking the low cloud layer.
Claim #12247 // FACTUAL CLAIM // SOURCED // 100% extraction confidence
“Brief observation of the silent movements of a luminous phenomenon in a cloudy sky: probable observation of a set of lasers striking the low cloud layer.”

// [[T0001]] Summary
At around 1:10 a.m. on 22 August 2014, a witness reported seeing for a few seconds directly overhead a metallic-colored disk surrounded by small reddish-pink luminous beams.
Claim #12248 // ATTRIBUTED CLAIM // SOURCED // 100% extraction confidence
“On 22 August 2014 at around 1:10 a.m., a witness was surprised to hear two cries in the night. Approaching a roof window, he saw, for a few seconds directly overhead, a metallic-colored disk surrounded by small reddish-pink luminous beams.”

The witness followed the phenomenon's silent movements in the cloudy sky for approximately 20 seconds in total.
Claim #12249 // ATTRIBUTED CLAIM // SOURCED // 100% extraction confidence
“The witness followed the phenomenon's silent movements in the cloudy sky for approximately 20 seconds in total.”

No other testimony was collected, and the testimony was described as precise but provided by a single witness without a photograph.
Claim #12250 // FACTUAL CLAIM // SOURCED // 100% extraction confidence
“No other testimony was collected. This testimony is of good consistency: precise, but provided by a single witness and without a photograph.”

// [[T0001]] Description
The investigation identified the UAP's circular shape, beams, very high speed, a cloud ceiling, and absence of noise as objective elements.
Claim #12251 // FACTUAL CLAIM // SOURCED // 100% extraction confidence
“Circular shape of the UAP - Presence of beams - Very high speed - Presence of a cloud ceiling - Absence of noise”

// [[T0002]] Investigation conclusion
GEIPAN concludes that the observation was probably a set of “Skytrackers”-style lasers moving rapidly and projected onto the base of the low cloud layer.
Claim #12252 // FACTUAL CLAIM // SOURCED // 100% extraction confidence
“We can conclude that the observation made by the witness was probably a set of “Skytrackers”-style lasers, moving rapidly and projected onto the base of the low cloud layer.”

// [[T0002]] Investigation conclusion
GEIPAN states that the observation was not very strange because the objects' behavior was ultimately ordinary.
Claim #12253 // ASSESSMENT // SOURCED // 100% extraction confidence
“The observation is not very strange because these were objects whose behavior was ultimately ordinary.”
