ALSACAT:

ALSACAT is my comprehensive catalog of UFO sighting reports in Alsace, the region is the North-East of France, whether they are "explained" or "unexplained".

The ALSACAT catalog is made of case files with a case number, summary, quantitative information (date, location, number of witnesses...), classifications, all sources mentioning the case with their references, a discussion of the case in order to evaluate its causes, and a history of the changes made to the file. A general index and thematic sub-catalogs give access to these Alsatian case files.

Discussion:

Musloch ("Mouse Hole" in Alsatian) is not a commune or city but a hamlet between Lièpvre and Sainte-Croix-aux-Mines.

With so little information for the moment I cannot comment.

Evaluation:

Totally insufficient information.
