In the Dry Log, in the kindergarten "Ogonyok", for two nights in a row someone has been leaving mysterious traces on the fresh snow: neatly drawn circles

- Yes, it's not me, by God! Well, look for yourself, is it possible to create such a broom! - the kindergarten janitor Vladimir Roshchin swore.

He is the first person who saw these mysterious footprints on Monday morning. Clear circles and spirals furrowed the playground. It was as if someone had drawn a compass. Moreover, the "leg" of the compass is at least thirty meters in length - this was the radius of the largest circle. The stripes neatly "stepped over" the sides of the sandbox. Bushes and thickets passed by without crushing them at all.

- No, you can't build such a thing with a broom, - the commission of inquiry, consisting of educators, nannies and parents, agreed with the janitor.

The night watchman Nadezhda Maslakova was immediately interrogated. "I didn't see or hear anything," she assured, "if the young people were joking, I wouldn't have missed it."

- Yes - this is not a human handiwork, - the staff of the kindergarten "Ogonyok" decided. - And it's just physically impossible to do this manually. It was rumored that at night, on the eve of the incident, cats were screaming wildly in nearby houses. Some eyewitnesses observed a pinkish glow in the sky above the kindergarten area.

Employees of the "affected" institution, trying to capture the mysterious circles, were disappointed - the photos did not work out. Local TV crews who arrived at the signal also told about the equipment failure.

Another commission was immediately called: the chief sanitary doctor of the city, the head of the city Ministry of Emergency Situations, officials from the city administration and the Department of Education.

Sanitary doctors and rescuers made radiation measurements. The background turned out to be normal. Everyone calmed down a little, but children who were eager to "look at the rings" were not allowed to go to the abnormal spirals, just in case.

And the next morning, someone left mysterious footprints at the kindergarten again. This time, not spirals, but circles. They were drawn on the snow-covered bottom of an outdoor summer pool.

The kindergarten staff just shrug their hands. Most citizens are sure it's a UFO. A pilgrimage has begun to the kindergarten. Day and night the curious go to look at the mysterious circles. Some decided to ambush UFOs - to watch at night.

- No, a UFO could not have landed so unnoticed, - says Lyudmila Miroshnik, the head of the kindergarten. - Maybe it's some kind of natural phenomenon, the earth was somehow pulled out from the inside in a special way. Although... what kind of land is in the pool? There's a cement floor!

Specialist's comment:

- I don't believe in UFOs, - said Professor Vladimir Utkin, head of the Laboratory of Nuclear Geophysics at the Institute of Geophysics of the UrARAN. - For some reason, I remembered a story: a few years ago, mysterious circles were also discovered on the football field in England, who knows where they came from. Ecologists, ufologists, and other scientists have been struggling with the mystery of the "circles". And a year and a half later, the authors of the circles found themselves. Two young people admitted that they had drawn them for a joke. But the case in the Dry Log, it seems, is really not the work of human hands. My opinion: it's all about air vortices. It's like a tornado. Such whirlwinds swirled around the city, and when an unexpected gust of wind broke up: they crushed the snow and left traces in the form of circles.

Hypotheses

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

Pritoptyvaya

Technology of execution of such drawings is quite simple and does not require additional devices, except the feet.

Foot crush and "dragged" a small section of the pattern, forming a trench. The height of the harvested snow turns out quite smooth, and the width of the plots with snow is governed by the distance between the legs "of the artist."

Investigation

Versions testing, their confirmation or refutation. Additional information, notes during the study of materials

According to similar facts, these circles are quite easily drawn with their feet, with one foot standing on the same line, and the second one is drawn next.

The readers of that newspaper themselves are also for the version of deliberate falsification.

KP-Ural received a letter on 27.11.2004:

Dear KP!

I am your reader with such an experience that, probably, "they don't live that long." And you always surprise me - you are looking for sensations. This is, of course, good, but in this case someone else is eager to become famous. In the photo, not circles, but a spiral, which can be drawn by placing a blank in the center with a rope wound around it, and dragging another blank along the ground. This technique has long been known among fans of sensations, or rather, among fans of becoming famous by publishing in KP. Announce a contest: "Who can draw this for, for example, 1000 rubles" - several people, and maybe even the authors of this drawing, will be found. I expected to see concentric circles, which often remain after vortices, but vortex circles never have clear outlines. Only MAN-MADE circles or spirals have clear outlines - it doesn't matter.

Try to fulfill my suggestion - publish the drawing and organize a contest. I even agree to sacrifice my thousand.

P.S. Did the representatives of the Ministry of Emergency Situations really measure radioactivity? If I were in the place of these jokers who made circles, I would pour the powdered dial of an old luminous watch into the circles. There's a little radioactivity there. What a noise it would be! The Ministry of Emergency Situations probably could not explain it otherwise than by aliens. It would be a good joke. Your circulation would have increased - accordingly, the interest from the profits to me, on the poverty of our science.

So what? Maybe we should try it?

Hello again.

With deep respect, your V.I. Utkin, Professor, Head of the Laboratory of Nuclear Geophysics of the Institute of Geophysics of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

News: Aliens were caught in the Urals

The "green men" were students of the 7th grade

Last week, the small Ural town of Sukhoi Log made the whole country buzz - huge circles appeared on the fresh snow in the courtyard of the Ogonyok kindergarten for two nights in a row. The place was immediately dubbed the "alien spaceport".

Journalists of the Yekaterinburg Komsomolskaya Pravda even staged a night ambush (see "KP" of November 26 and 27). A real hunt for aliens has begun in the Dry Log. Crowds of people were on duty at night in the kindergarten.
