Initial data

Initial information from sources or from an eyewitness

Incident date:

1971 17:00

Location:

Ярославль

Yaroslavskaya oblast

Russia

This figure slowly emerged from the rounded outline of the cloud and changed in the form of a bulge, and ended in the shape of an ancient helmet upside down with a living, writhing tail. For 20 minutes, the figure did not increase or decrease, but, moving in profile and trembling slightly, it seemed to rotate at an incredible speed, which made the thin transverse lines, oscillating, flow with a lead-metallic luster.

Then the figure slowly, imperceptibly retracted into the same place from where it appeared, without reducing the rotation and without leaving the slightest signs of itself. 3a 4 hours, these clouds, barely moving to the side, completely melted.

Weather conditions: the sky is calm, calm (calm), the clouds are highly feathery, below the lambs and their leaky confluence into a fragile island.

YAROSLAVL, Permontova str., GALKIN U.
