PATOEV Kim Konstantinovich, correspondent of the Petrozavodsk newspaper Neuvosto-Karyala, Economic Department.

In the Sarajevo newspaper (Yugoslavia), this case was written about the day after the event, but unfortunately I did not keep the newspaper. On September 21, 1978, at about 17 o'clock, I was walking along Sarajevo, along Marshal Tito Street. And I see everyone is looking up. They stand right at the intersections and watch. And I saw it too: high in the sky, an extraordinary object, with a shiny surface, aluminum color. The sky was clear, without clouds, and the sun was shining brightly.

About ten minutes later, I noticed that the object was moving. At the same time, the shape of the body itself changed - its outlines, boundaries. I have not seen spots like in the photo in the newspaper in nature.

Another 15 minutes later, two jet fighters appeared about 5 kilometers from the body, sequentially, one after the other, at an altitude of ten kilometers, in different directions. A trace of them was visible.

About six o'clock in the evening, the sun began to set, the body above looked like a red, red moon, and it was illuminated like the Moon - a quarter of the ball was illuminated, it was not a sickle

at the same time, it turned out, but somehow the shape loomed out differently. The body is opaque - like an air bubble, if you look at it from the depth of the water and, moreover, from the bottom up, in the top

at the same time, the sun is shining.

The newspaper wrote that the size of this body was 25 by 50 meters, that its speed was 20-20 km/h.

The newspaper called the body a balloon launched from nowhere for scientific purposes (the comment was given by a scientist from the observatory).

The height of the body above the horizon was 70 degrees. Oo was flying west-towards the sun. The movement was barely noticeable from the ground.

Hypotheses

Balloon/Weather Balloon

The balloon (simplified is a balloon) — an aircraft lighter than air, where the lift force is used enclosed in a sheath gas (or heated air) with a density less than the density of the surrounding air.

Distinguish between tethered, Svobodnaya and balloons — powered airships.
