The French Federation of ufology has just been recipient of the testimony of a reporting motorist who saw an unidentified flying object (UFO), last Friday, July 5, at about 10:30 P.M., near Mulhouse. This motorist circulated on the A 35 highway while returning from Switzerland, in the direction of Colmar. He tells: "In the vicinity of Mulhouse, I observed an enormous flying object in the sky, it was a triangle formed by three lights and another with a circular shape in its middle. The colors were very pure and resembled neons in the shape of a circle. The object did not make any noise and moved slowly. I stopped on the motorway and observed the phenomenon, I was very impressed when it flew just overhead. I then noted that there was also a body with these three lights. I called the police forces of Mulhouse but apparently I was the only one who reported the phenomenon. However we were several people on the highway... I think I have seen the object at a hundred meters height and it was at least 100 meters wide. I had not drunk anything that day and I do not take drugs, it is the first time that I see such a phenomenon and I am sure not to have dreamed."
The French Federation for Ufology (FFU) was created one year ago by people impassioned by the study of UFOs, and three members of the Board, Lucien Peloso, Patrick Gross and Evelyne Besserer, live in Haut-Rhin. They launch this call to other people who may have seen the UFO in the mulhousian sky, Friday evening.
