Referring to a "computerized catalog" by ufologist Jacques Vallée, a website in the USA indicated in the 2000s that there had been an observation at midnight on October 23, 1954, in Chartres, of an unidentified object, but that had "an appearance and behavior that most likely would have a conventional explanation."
By 2016, a German UFO website noted the same sighting but dropped the source and the mention that the object would probably have a conventional explanation.
[Ref. uda1:] SITE WEB "UFODNA":
The website indicates that on 23 October 1954 at 24:00 in Chartres, France, "An unidentified object was sighted, but with appearance and behavior that most likely would have a conventional explanation. One object was observed."
La source est indiquée comme "Vallee, Jacques, Computerized Catalog (N = 3073)".
