Tambovskaya oblast

Russia

On the night of May 21-22 , 1981 , we rested on the Lesnoy Voronezh river near the village . Turmasovo, Michurinsky district, and observed the movement of an unidentified flying object, which was a glowing egg-shaped ball of red color, behind which a long tail of yellow-gray color spread. The movement of the object was smooth, it flew soundlessly. The shapes were vague, so the dimensions are difficult to establish. The observation time is approximately 0-30 nights. The object was flying in the direction of Donskoye settlement, it was in the observation zone for 30-40 seconds. The view was limited because we were in a canyon. After the flight, there was no trace left in the atmosphere.

the object was observed at an angle of 30 degrees to the horizon at a distance of approximately 1 km.
