CLM-004501 · Official Physical Landing Trace Analysis
“The analyses of plant samples taken at the site indicated that they were not dealing with any type of [known] aircraft, or even a helicopter or military drone, which were hypotheses that were considered and analyzed.”

CLM-004502 · Official Plant Biochemical Trauma Effect
“In fact, the chlorophylls, as well as certain amino acids of the plants, exhibited significant variations in concentration, variations which decreased with the distance [of the plants] from the center of the mechanical track.”

CLM-004503 · Official Plant Biochemical Trauma Effect
“According to Professor Michel Bounias of the ecology and plant toxicology laboratory of INRA who performed the analyses, the cause of the profound disturbances suffered by the vegetation present in that ecosystem could likely be a powerful pulsed electromagnetic field in the high frequency (microwave) range.”

CLM-004505 · Official Radar Tracking & Telemetry
“The object changed direction several times, describing line segments ranging from 13 to 30 km, separated by abrupt stops for 3 to 6 minutes; the speed always went from a value of zero to a value of some 950 km/h without any transition.”

CLM-004506 · Official Radar Tracking & Telemetry
“The regulation telex sent by Lakenheath concluded: "The fact that rapid accelerations and abrupt stops of the object were detected by radar and by sight from the ground give the report definite credibility."”

CLM-004507 · Official Craft Morphology Observation
“First Officer Vallee spotted an object that appeared to be a weather balloon... Duboc saw it in turn and immediately identified that it was not a balloon. It had the shape of a disc, was brown in color, and appeared to undergo variable geometry.”

“They then realized that these were not children but small black beings whose height did not exceed 1.20 m. Two of them were standing next to the sphere, another was kneeling before it, and the fourth, who was standing, held in its hand a sort of mirror that blinded the children.”
