A 1946 report from a Swedish curate to the Defense Staff describing a slow-moving, blue, spherical aerial object with a tail observed over Jädraås. This document is part of the historical record of Swedish UAP sightings.
On July 11, 1946, Erik Alldahl, a curate (Kyrkoadjunkt) at the Pastorsämbetet in Ockelbo, Sweden, submitted a formal report to the Swedish Defense Staff (Försvarsstaben) regarding a mysterious light phenomenon he had witnessed. The report was written in response to a request from the Defense Staff for information concerning such sightings. Alldahl states that on Tuesday, July 9, 1946, at approximately 14:37, he was sitting in a garden in Jädraås, about 20 kilometers southwest of Ockelbo, with an acquaintance. He observed a phenomenon against a completely cloudless sky that resembled a shooting star, though he noted its speed was significantly slower. The object appeared as a small, intensely clear blue sphere, similar in color to a cornflower. It was followed by a tail that was narrow and clearly visible, which transitioned from blue near the sphere to clear white at its end. The duration of the sighting was estimated at five to seven seconds, and the object moved in a trajectory from south to north.
Det såg ut som en liten blå kula, färgtonen ungefär som blåklint, varefter följde en "svans”, tämligen smal och fullt tydlig, vilken övergick från blått vid kulan till klart vitt vid änden.
