UFO. Russia

Drobyshevsky V.N. writes to the Commission on AI.:

An ambulance doctor in Leningrad is writing to you about UFOs. In 1981, on June 22 (?) I was returning from a call at 2-00 at night and the paramedic who worked with me noticed a strange searchlight, we saw: half a balloon was slowly floating in the air at an altitude of about 200 m, from which a weakly milky ray was coming to the ground with a searchlight. The size of the "hemisphere" in diameter is 1 m.

At the beginning, the beam was narrow, then it expanded. He sailed slowly, without noise, sailed from north to south. We informed the staff of the ambulance station about this - at least 15 of our employees ran out to watch this spectacle. I called the KGB immediately, described it to the attendant, but he calmly answered me what was needed, and it flew." At 2-30 at night, at the same time I called the Pulkovo Observatory, but the guard said that they were constantly calling, but there was no one at the observatory, at the same time she said that the object was already flying over the Moscow district (I saw it in Vyborgsky) and that the Leningrad air defense was alerted.

At about 3 a.m. in the northeast, from where this object was flying, there was a persistent glow, similar to the rising sun, on which there were "worm-like" darkenings that expanded and the glow turned black, and then turned into a small black cloud.

I later tried to know what was "flying". It was reported that "it was a probe", there were rumors that it was a rocket "lost its launch", etc.

Yes, at the moment when this object was flying, there was a "white night", a lot of people "poured out" in our neighborhood.

Everyone who watched (the staff) had some kind of creepy impression, no one wanted to discuss what it was for some reason.
