AI-Generated Summary
This document is a 1946 Swedish military report detailing a sighting of an unidentified light phenomenon observed in Stockholm. It describes the object's movement, duration, and visual characteristics as reported by an officer.
On June 21, 1946, an individual identified as Överfurir Gustavsson submitted a formal report to the Chief of F8 regarding a light phenomenon observed the previous night. On June 20, 1946, at 23:17, Gustavsson observed a light phenomenon while at Stadsgården, near the Katarinahissen. The object was seen in a northern direction with a heading of NNO. The witness estimated the elevation angle to be approximately 20 degrees and noted that the distance to the object appeared to be very great. The phenomenon moved relatively slowly. The light was described as lasting for five seconds; it began weakly, increased to an intense white light, and subsequently faded away over a cloud. While the size of the object was estimated to be comparable to a star, the witness noted that the light itself was significantly brighter than that of a star. The report was subsequently forwarded to the Air Defense Department of the Defense Staff for their information.
Storleken var ungefär som på en stjärna, men ljusskenet var mycket starkare än hos en sådan.
