The Beams over Fontiès-d'Aude
One night in late May 1995 a couple at Fontiès-d'Aude watched a large dark object hang silently over their house and sweep the ground with beams of light. Afterwards their dogs fell ill, they felt unwell and plants withered where the beams had fallen. France's official investigators explained the illnesses and the plants but not the object. This is the record of what was reported and tested, not a verdict on what hovered over the house.

- Afterwards, they said, the dogs fell sick, both of them felt unwell and plants withered where the beams had fallen.
