Initial data
It happened on February 14, 1989 at 7:40 a.m. I was walking to work on the street. Railway station in the south direction. The weather was good; the sky was clear, there was no wind, the sun had not yet risen from the horizon.
My attention was attracted by two men, one of whom was showing something to the other on the web. Looking in that direction, I saw on the horizon, low over the forest, apparently very far away, a slowly moving object.
It was a straw-colored ball, it shone brightly, the brightness was comparable to the brightness of the full moon. The glow seemed to be its own, the area was not illuminated. The vapor looked voluminous, geometrically regular in shape, with a well-defined edge, about 3/4 the size of the lunar disk. It was homogeneous in its structure, no details are visible.
The object was located about 40 degrees to the southeast and was moving slowly, slower than an airplane at high altitude, in a southerly direction. The movement was straight and even. There was no noise.
There was a gray trail behind him, which seemed to come out of a pipe at some distance from the object. The footprint was wide, about half the size of the object, wavy, homogeneous, and remained in shape for a long time, but it did not look like an airplane footprint.
I watched all this for about 15 minutes, then stopped watching, I had to go to work.
I didn't feel any special omissions, just surprise.
Previously, there was an observation of an unusual object on 17.09.1986.
Hypotheses
Booster, the rocket and tracks
For UFOs often take stages of rockets, parts of space ships burning in the atmosphere, the launches of various missile technology for military purposes, etc., and traces from them. They attract attention mostly in the dark, but in the day time have a greater aura of mystery.
Formation of the track of the launch vehicle occurs in the tropopause (the layer between the troposphere and stratosphere), which sharply reduced the vertical temperature gradient. The emergence of the so-called "jellyfish" influenced by water vapor, which are subject to enhanced condensation.
