Several UFO phenomena were observed these last days and it is one more testimony that we pour in this file which is far from being closed. This testimony, we owe it to Mrs. Delorme, teacher in retirement residing in Gordes, and who also conscientiously made her duty by reporting her observations to the gendarmerie.
Here is what Mrs. Delorme told us:
"On December 28, I was half-sleeping in my bedroom, with open shutters. Suddenly, I was awaked by a strong gleam. It was very exactly 7:07, I looked at my alarm clock. I went out on my terrace and I saw a very brilliant round ball, of 50 cm approximately which moved slowly at about thirty meters of me. It is as if the moon walked in the small valley of Gordes".
And Mrs. Delorme makes a point of specifying: "I was extremely impressed for I am interested in the UFO phenomenon. Of course, that does not mean that I believe in the flying saucers or the small green men which are supposedly inside. But there is something and something we don't understand..." That's what Mrs. Delorme very kindly told us.
