 RECORDING OF A CONVERSATION with Nadezhda Ivanovna DEMIDOVICH, a teacher.

question: Tell me, what did you observe on June 24, 1981?

answer: There was a very strong thunderstorm that day.We were all sitting at the table.Sveta was sitting with her back to the window. And literally there was a strong discharge somewhere nearby. Sveta got scared, we all got scared, jumped up...We looked out the window and someone saw it... Two pillars. Rectangular. The left one is brighter...(Draws a diagram). The distance between them was small. Pencil at arm's length. It's in width. A little wider. The right one was less bright. There was a haze. It was hard to see. I've timed it. It was 19.20. Then I moved away from the window, and looked at the Light. Then she called us. Some oval objects appeared across the bay, they were darker at the bottom, lighter at the top. They were moving in front. There were 4 or 5 of them. They were moving towards our shore and quite fast. They went behind the trees, then turned back. We went back and forth several times. I was moving away from the window. I didn't see everything. One thing rose above that distant forest. I saw that clearly. It rose above the forest line. Two pillars hung above this vegetation, the forest. The pillars disappeared. First, the one that was less visible disappeared. Then the brighter one disappeared. I had my friends. They saw it too:

Valentina Ivanovna Sedykh.

Lyudmila Alyokhina.

All this happened for about two hours. Then I went to see my friends off. I came, the girls called me to the balcony. I didn't see anything special. There are a lot of ships passing by us. They also go like "river-sea"... we can see a strip of channel, dark... Sveta tells me: Look at him flying. Yes, indeed, he is flying over this gray stripe. Then I say yes, no, it can't be, this gray stripe is too close. But the far one was not visible. I didn't see anything unusual. It was very similar to such a river-sea vessel . . .

We usually have traffic in the bay. And then these small objects, "oval, moved across to the shore. The pillars seemed unusual to me. They stood for a long time. We didn't see anything special through the binoculars. Our binoculars are weak. When the girls told me that she was flying to this dark ship, I felt a little scared, as I imagined. Then it seemed to me that this could not be. We just didn't see the second strip of the horizon.

When I went out to see my friends off, it was no longer raining. We looked up at the sky, but saw nothing unusual.

Tanya called her friend. They saw it all too. There was a strong thunderstorm discharge, so her father explained.

Another friend said that she woke up at night from a thunderstorm, went to the window and saw a fireball...

The glowing pillars didn't look like floodlights. They seemed to fluctuate like heated air. Then, at night, a strong thunderstorm began again... The pillars glowed like metal reflecting a bright light. A little yellowish. (He clarifies at the window where the whole picture was visible).
