NEVERS. -- A week apart, a second U.F.O. (unidentified flying object) was seen in the sky over Decize (Nièvre). It was 6:30 a.m. the other morning when gendarmerie adjutant Auroy and two of his men observed in the sky an object twenty times larger than a star which took, in turn, sometimes the shape of a a large cigar, sometimes that of a half-sphere. This object gave off a strong luminosity.
Last week, the object was seen by an engineer from Kléber-Colombes and several local residents.
Witnesses returned to the scene shortly afterwards and discovered, "imprinted" in the ground, a small circular basin, about fifteen centimeters deep and traces of small footsteps around it.
