Reference for this case: 4-Nov-54-Les-Redoux.
Please cite this reference in any correspondence with me regarding this case.
Ufologist and author Jean Sider indicated in the years 1994 and 1997 that the newspaper La Résistance de l'Ouest for November 5, 1954, reported observations of November 4, 1954, from 7:00 a.m. to 7:15 a.m., in the region of Nantes in the Loire-Atlantique department.
One of them would be that the "craft" seen at La Douce Pierre had been seen at the same time, ie 07:00 a.m., at Le Redoux, near the station, by several witnesses, moving from south to north, apparently from Challans to Sainte-Pazanne.
[Ref. ldl1:] JEAN SIDER - UFOLOGY MAGAZINE "LUMIERES DANS LA NUIT":
The magazine indicates that on November 4, 1954, there were sightings from 7:00 to 7:15 in the Nantes region in Loire Atlantique, which look "curiously" like the case of Le Sourn in the Morbihan.
The craft seen at La Douce Pierre was seen at the same time at Le Redoux, near the station, by several witnesses, moving from south to north, apparently from Challans to Sainte-Pazanne.
[Ref. jsr1:] JEAN SIDER:
French ufologist Jean Sider found about the case in the newspaper La Résistance de l'Ouest for November 5, 1954, and he indicates that at 7 o'clock at the Redoux on November 4, in the proximity of the railway station, several witnesses saw a phenomenon which would be identical to that seen at the same time in La Douce-Pierre, that is to say a fast oval luminous phenomenon in the sky, with a trail.
The ~07:15 a.m. meteor in that area.
