Smirnov I.V. writes to the Commission on the:

...

I had to observe another case not alone and quite by chance at the end of last year. This was the last and most interesting phenomenon that I was able to observe.

Returning home late at night from a friend, my friend and I were having a normal conversation. Suddenly, we noticed a bright yellow flash in the night sky, after which we felt uneasy. at the place of the flash, a ring of fire was clearly expressed, large in size, with uneven outer edges, from which two parallel lines in the form of narrow strips of the same fiery color as the ring ran.

I'm not sure you'll believe me, since I'm already used to the opposite. But that's not the point. Being on the street, I began to realize that I was thinking about UFOs. It may seem silly to you, but it's important to me.
