August 29, 6:25 AM: In France, a French gamekeeper spotted a green cigar: At 6:25 AM, it was normally daylight and the weather was slightly foggy, I was parking my moped against a slope and my gaze was automatically directed towards the farm (...). Suddenly I saw a strange craft hovering vertically above this house and about 50 m in altitude. This craft was coming in my direction. It had the shape of a shell, its color was very light green, when it passed in front of me the craft dazzled me as if looking directly at the sun. On its passage it left a trail that could be a kind of condensation and not smoke. It emitted absolutely no sound, its passage probably lasted only half a second. Its speed seemed slightly higher than the majority of meteors that can be commonly observed in space (...). It seemed to me that the cylindrical craft at the back measured 2 m in diameter and about 3 m in length. It apparently had no windows or other visible openings. There were also no fins or other superstructure on this craft. The back was flat and light green in color as well as the entire body in the shape of a shell [[J.-C.
