The year 1909 was also "fruitful" for "balls".

"On July 1 and 2, at exactly 8:25 p.m., a point of fire appeared over Nizhny Novgorod and surrounding villages, which moved evenly in different directions," the newspaper Volgar reported. - At times, a sheaf of rays burst out of this luminous point.

The movements of the luminous point, which by its size exceeded an ordinary large star by four times, seemed surprisingly planned and reasonable. The glowing dot could be seen both through binoculars and with a simple eye. She quickly went up, just as quickly went down, made smooth movements in both directions.

The dot appeared neatly for two nights in a row and lasted up to two hours. There is no doubt that the mysterious glowing dot is a balloon.

Question: Who are these mysterious aeronauts? And what made them stay in one place for two nights?"
