N.S. Vartsaba writes to the Commission on AI.

I am writing to you from the Kiev region, the village of Barshevka. My name is Nedezhda

Stepanovna, Surname - Vartsaba, 34 years old..

The fact is that on March 24, 1990, I observed an abnormal phenomenon.

I was escorting a friend and returning home, I saw a strange star above our house (we live in a 50-apartment building), accidentally glancing at the sky. The sky was clear and starry.

She differed from the rest of the stars by a large (about 3 times) the size and greater brightness. It seemed to me that it looked like a flattened ball, but I'm not sure about that. The star was doing something incomprehensible. It soared up and down, but not very low, above the house.

I listened. There was no sound. The star rose and fell three times, and then floated across the sky, in the direction where I was standing. It flew over me. The star was shining and something was spinning around it.

On the count of three, blue appeared, a very beautiful color. I still remember him. I don't know what the other two colors are. Something between yellow, orange and white. She didn't fly the same way. Sometimes accelerating sharply, then slowing down, in some smooth zigzags, but in a straight line. It seemed that he was flying wherever he wanted, and without any difficulties.

When she was no longer visible, I watched for another minute or two on the count of three the blue sheen in the place where she disappeared.

When I got home, I looked at my watch. It was 10:22 p.m.

She told the children, the neighbor, sketched her flight, and also determined the direction using the compass. She flew from north to south. Like that.

My son and I went out to watch, but nothing was flying anymore.

If you are interested in this letter of mine, I will be very glad. The friend I was seeing off also saw her, but thought it was a "star flying", did not attach any importance to it.

Hypotheses

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

Booster, the rocket and tracks

For UFOs often take stages of rockets, parts of space ships burning in the atmosphere, the launches of various missile technology for military purposes, etc., and traces from them. They attract attention mostly in the dark, but in the day time have a greater aura of mystery.

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.

Airplane / Helicopter

An aircraft heavier than air for flights in the atmosphere (and outer space (e.g. An orbital aircraft)), using the aerodynamic lift of a glider to keep itself in the air (when flying within the atmosphere) and the thrust of a power (propulsion) installation for maneuvering and compensating for the loss of total mechanical energy to drag. 



A rotorcraft in which the lift and thrust required for flight are created by one or more main rotors powered by an engine or several engines. They differ in maneuverability, the ability to hover and almost vertical takeoff.

Satellite

Ordinary satellites, which often look like single, not very bright luminous dots moving smoothly in the night sky, are quite often mistaken for UFOs. After the Starlink satellites (near-Earth satellite systems developed by SpaceX, in order to create a cheap and high-performance satellite Internet communication channel and technical transmitters for receiving and transmitting signals from earth and orbit) were launched, it became possible to observe groups of satellites (up to 60 pieces) flying one after another.
