Strong emotion yesterday evening towards 7:15 p.m., for four residents of a building of the street of Kaysersberg, in Mulhouse-Bourtzwiller, who state they saw an unidentified flying object (UFO) in the sky.
These four people were taking the (springtime-like) air on their balcony of the thirs floor when, according to their own description, a kind of large ball appeared. An orange luminous balloon, which rotated, sometimes very shining, sometimes chechmate. The object stopped above the cemetery, then suddenly, disappeared, very fast, in direction of Illzach. The phenomenon reportedly lasted approximately five minutes. A UFO (one more) or a weather balloon illuminated by the setting sun and pulled by the wind?
