UFO. Russia

Nikolai Nikolaevich Lunev writes to the Commission on AYA:

We were going to bed around midnight. I went out to smoke on the porch and saw in the northern part of the sky a round object about 1.5 or 1.6 Moons in size, from the front of which rays (tails) of orange-red color came out and moved back. Behind the object, they formed an expanding perfectly symmetrical plume, slightly diverging to the sides and gradually fading at a distance of about 2-2.5 disks of the Moon. The maximum diameter of the plume is about 1.5 of the Moon's disk. the wife claims that she noticed the convergence and closing of the slightly visible ends of the rays from behind. The color of the rays towards the center of the plume is redder. There is a "hole" in the black sky between them. There were small, sparse clouds in the sky. The upper tail crossed them twice and it was clear that it was further away: clouds shaded it.

But in general, the light of the object illuminated the clouds, which were very clearly visible, not like on other nights: you had to stare intently to notice them.

The color of the glow is like a red sunset.

The movement of the object is uniform, smooth. He was in sight for 1.5-2 minutes.

Observers have noted an extremely alarming state. They are sure that it is not related to the strangeness of the phenomenon, or any associations, but is caused by the influence of the object.

They postulate an extreme skepticism about the problems of UFOs.
