Anatoly Lisovsky, a photomaster at the Ivanovo Worsted Mill, observed on June 19, I981, at approximately 23 hours 45 minutes (2-3 minutes) of Moscow summer time, at an altitude of approximately 30 ° above the horizon, a star, half the diameter of a 1 kopeck coin, moving towards the northeast to 30°, at arm's length, slightly oblong in shape.

From the "star", after a kind of flash, in both directions to the vertical (up and down) two "sickles" separated, the bistros dispersed and disappeared. After that, the speed of the "star" increased greatly and it disappeared in the indicated direction.

The contrail persisted for about 0 hours, gradually melting (blurring). The left side of the zigzag trail was in the direction of 5-10° Northeast. The right one is more blurred -

in the direction of 20-25° northeast.

According to Anatoly Lisovsky, it was a beautiful sight. The phenomenon was filmed by him on a reversible photographic film.

Formation of the track of the launch vehicle occurs in the tropopause (the layer between the troposphere and stratosphere), which sharply reduced the vertical temperature gradient. The emergence of the so-called "jellyfish" influenced by water vapor, which are subject to enhanced condensation.
