Encounters of the third kind are not a sign of modern times. In 1991 former surgeon Vladimir Shabanov wrote in the newspaper "the Voice" that he happened to see many years ago:

"July 1953 I spent working in the village Arkadak — district center in 260 km. from Saratov to side with Balashov. The exact date of the event do not remember, but it happened in mid-July. I decided to go fishing with an overnight stay, going to one of the oxbow lakes of the river Khoper. Arrived at the scene by the sunset. Located on the Eastern shore in a small clearing. To start I decided to go gather wood for a fire while it was still light enough. Logging in a nearby forest, gradually became absorbed in him, were collected by way of dry twigs and branches. Suddenly felt some inexplicable anxiety, I looked around and, looking up, noticed a strange glow penetrating through the trees.

Not letting go of the assembled thirsty, come to the light. Literally 300 meters away, came to the edge of the vast fields, overgrown with tall grass. In the meadow there hung a mist, brightly lit whitish light, and in the middle of the clearing is some sort of apparatus in the form of a biconcave lens, based on three pillars. In the center of the upper surface of the "lens" add-spherical shape. At the equator "lens" ring like the planet Saturn. The surface of the device glowed with a bluish metallic luster.

Approaching the edge of the clearing and saw it, I completely froze, squeezing firmly in the hands of the branches, as if trying to squeeze the juice from them. It was felt, if not quite fear, it is something unusual.

Suddenly, from behind the camera seemed the figures of two people (as I then called them mentally), dressed in tight-fitting, slightly shiny jumpsuits gray, tied with belts. The distance to the camera from the edge was about 250-300 meters, and the figures of "people" was visible very well. They walked around the device in a spiral in my direction was not looking. But I watched them spellbound: in a highly luminous mist walking an unknown humanoid creatures around unseen apparatus.

This vision lasted about 10 minutes. Then the figures walked up to the machine, went under it and was dragged into the machine as a vacuum cleaner. Then, with just 10-15 seconds, the surface began to glow with pink light and the ring at the equator of the device began to rotate, increasing the speed of rotation. The glow of the shell of the machine became more bright, and the color was originally white and then to color welding. Then the supports of the apparatus drawn in, and he went straight up, disappearing quickly from view...

Additionally can you give the dimensions: diameter (ring) to 30, the height of 10-11 meters. Any of the Windows or portholes of the device is not seen. Add-upstairs unit seemed transparent. Well, who am I, a medic, was able at the time to tell such an amazing story and some really comprehended years later?"

Original news

Former military physician, Vladimir Shabanov was camping overnight on the eastern shore of the Khoper River. At night while preparing a bonfire he decided to go into the woods and gather some brushwood. After entering the thick forest he gradually went deeper into. As he collected tree branches and sticks he suddenly felt an inexplicable uneasiness, he looked around and noticed a strange glow penetrating through the trees. Without dropping his firewood he walked directly towards the glow. After about 300m he came to the edge of an extensive clearing, which was overgrown with tall grass. The clearing was covered in thick fog which vividly reflected white light that was coming from a strange object that had apparently landed in the middle of the clearing. The object was shaped like a convex lens and rested on three leg-like supports. In the center of the upper surface of the object was a gradual dome of spherical form. On the equator of the object was a ring similar to that of the planet Saturn. The surface of the object emitted a bluish metallic luster. After coming closer to the clearing Shabanov suddenly grew torpid and held on tightly to the firewood. He was not exactly afraid but knew he was experiencing something uncommon. Suddenly from behind the object appeared several human-like figures dressed in tightly-fitting, slightly luminous coveralls gray in color, and tight belts. The distance of the object from the edge of the clearing was approximately 250m to 300m and the figures were clearly visible. They walked around the object as inspecting something and did not look in the direction of the witness. The witness stood mesmerized and watched the scene for about 10 minutes. And then the figures approached the object again stood under it and appeared to be sucked into the craft just like a vacuum cleaner. 10-15 seconds later the surface of the object began to emit a pink light and the ring around its equator began to rotate at a very high rate of speed, the color of the object then became bright white like that of a welder’s light. The supports were then pulled upwards and it left vertically rapidly disappearing from sight. The witness did not see any windows or lights on the object and thinks that the upper dome could have been transparent in nature.
