Five young people saw a round object maneuvering over the Valley. After that, the object landed on the hillside, gradually turned ruby-red, then very white. 

The compass needle randomly changed direction from North to North-East at intervals of one second, while the object was on the slope of the hill. The object hovered above the ground, and then rushed to the witnesses. 

When an object flew overhead, the animals reacted, blue spots and vertical stripes appeared on the TV, the radio did not work, and the compass needle rested on the glass cover.
