In his ufology book of 1998, Jacques Costagliola indicated that according to the bulletin of the Astronomical Society of France on page 75, under the title "suspicious objects", it was said that Mr. L. Cassieux, of Evreux, remembered having seen "about ten years ago (around 1954)" in July, around 10 p.m., a brilliant discoid object in the sky of Evreux, an axisless top, twice as wide as the moon, of a height equal to one third of the width, bright red underside, yellow at the top. The object descended vertically and came to a standstill, ascended obliquely and instantly disappeared in a fast, silent motion.
[Ref. jca1:] JACQUES COSTAGLIOLA:

The object descended vertically and was immobilized, went up obliquely and disappeared instantaneously in a fast and silent movement.
