Circles on the field and other formations. Russia

After another speech on the radio, I received a letter from Mikhail Yakovlevich Malyshkin from the village of Zavyalovo, Talitsky district.

"This summer hundreds of people visited the UFO landing site near our village," he wrote. - The first strange traces on the barley field were discovered on the August morning of 1990 by combine harvesters. It is three kilometers from our village and 500 meters from the Zavyalovo-Irbit highway."

Mikhail Yakovlevich tried and even sent a description of the landing site of an alien spaceship. Judging by the diagram drawn by him, there was no doubt that the UFO that landed was a real physical body. However, it was unclear why four tracks were left on the field. Usually there are only three of them: one corresponds to the braking phase during approach, the second means landing, and the third occurs as a result of hovering before a rapid departure. This is a classic example, recorded many times by ufologists.

These three tracks, being evenly spaced, always fit into an equilateral triangle. As a rule, the diameter of the central spot is about 3 meters. There are two rings 40-60 cm wide around it .

In this atypical case - Talitsky - the tracks lined up in a row and stretched for almost 130 meters. The diameter of the spot in the center is 6 meters. There are three spots, and the extreme one is two meters smaller than the central one. Around each of them is a wide ring - a dent. Lines from the letter:

"What should be the weight of the object to leave a round dent 20 cm deep, while the footprint of the ZIL-130 car loaded with bread is only 3 cm, and the tracks of the combine wheels in this field are poorly distinguishable.

At the landing site, the grains were not crushed. And they did not burn out, the color of the plants did not change. Even in the center of the six-meter circle, the barley remained standing on the root. It is immediately clear that the warm-up engines were not working here. When landing, the object apparently swayed, as can be seen from the raised outer edges of the earth."

Further, the author of the letter wrote that prints in the form of shoes are visible along the entire outer perimeter of the recess. They are located 20 cm apart from each other at all four landing tracks of the "flying saucer". A fresh groove in the form of a keyway 1.5 m long, 30 cm deep and 8 cm wide was formed next to them.

"A soil sample was probably taken," Mikhail Yakovlevich concludes.

This letter was received, unfortunately, with great delay, only in December. It was already deep winter. In addition, so that numerous onlookers would not completely trample the grain field, the grain growers overcame the landing site with plows. It's a pity, I so wanted to fix the landing place on film, now there would be unique inimitable shots.

I keep this exciting letter with diagrams carefully and have never tried to publish it in the press. The fact is that I am constantly waiting for the second such case of a UFO landing in the Urals. There is no such visit yet. It turns out that the Talitsky phenomenon is a unique phenomenon! Which is why it is valuable.
