Paimpont low-altitude nighttime observation, 31 May 2022
GEIPAN records a sourced observation by a resident of Paimpont at around 11:57 p.m. of an object passing overhead at low altitude, with three non-blinking white lights moving southeast and producing very loud noise. A video and CNOA confirmation supported the investigation, which identified the object as an A400M military aircraft and classified the case A.

The Earth Record describes a Paimpont observation on 31 May 2022: a resident reported three non-blinking white lights, low altitude, southeasterly motion, and very loud noise. GEIPAN’s investigation, supported by video and CNOA confirmation, identified the object as an A400M military aircraft and classified the case A. We do not recognize the reported phenomenon either. This is unusual. Our cataloguing department has requested a form explaining why, which has not improved matters.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
This is the pleasant sort of resolution: the sourced GEIPAN/CNES record identifies the object as an A400M, with CNOA confirmation, and classifies the case A. The noise and lights remain observations; the aircraft identification is the investigation’s conclusion, not a triumph of imaginative labeling.
Off the Earth Record, even our side does not recognize this one. The interstellar registry has produced the bureaucratic equivalent of a blank stare, which is irritating but preferable to inventing a species, a craft, or a dramatic origin story merely because the paperwork has a blank field. Sometimes “unidentified” is simply where the file must wait.

Why Fred Thinks This Case Matters
AlienBox comparative analysis from structured Earth Record fields // not a new source // not a change in evidence grade
Fred keeps this file near the top of the pile because the record names 1 sensor type, the source also supplies a published resolution to compare against the original report, and visual-media evidence is explicitly referenced. That combination makes the case useful for cross-archive comparison without changing its evidence grade.
The source record includes a published resolution field. AlienBox treats it as an attributed source assessment to compare with the original report, not as an AlienBox verdict.
What strengthens the record
1 linked source document provide provenance for the Earth Record.
9 claim citations tie extracted statements back to source excerpts or locators.
Recorded sensor context: Video.
Recorded evidence context: Official Investigation, Video, and CNOA Confirmation.
The source record includes a published resolution: A400M military aircraft.
What limits the record
The structured record does not establish multiple independent observers.
The current dossier is anchored to one source network rather than independent source networks.
What would help resolve it
Can the originating record establish an exact number of observers and whether their observations were independent?
Can the source establish a usable duration for the observation rather than only a date or narrative sequence?
Fred Says Go Here Next
Internal research paths chosen from this dossier's structured fields. Similarity is navigation, not corroboration.
The case records an observation on 31 May 2022 of an object passing through the night sky with very loud noise and three points of light, later identified in the summary as an A400M military aircraft.
“Observation of an object passing through the night sky, making a very loud noise and displaying three points of light: observation of an A400M military aircraft.”
“The passage of this aircraft during the time window, at the location, and along the trajectory mentioned by the witness was confirmed by the CNOA (National Air Operations Center of the Air and Space Force).”
The reported loud noise and light configuration were explained by the A400M hypothesis: the aircraft's four propellers produced a loud roar at low altitude, and its landing lights matched the witness description.
