AI-Generated Summary
A witness report from Anders Jonsson to the Swedish Air Defense Department regarding a light phenomenon observed in Knutby on July 9, 1946. The object was described as a green, comet-like entity that descended, cracked, and vanished.
On July 11, 1946, Anders Jonsson wrote to the Air Defense Department of the Swedish Defense Staff (Försvarsstabens Luftförsvarsavdelning) in response to a radio appeal for information regarding light phenomena observed across Sweden. Jonsson reported that on Tuesday, July 9, 1946, at approximately 14:30, he was working on a field at Hemåla Gård in Knutby. He heard a hissing sound and turned to see a light-green, comet-like object, approximately two meters long, moving from the northwest toward the southeast. When the object reached an altitude of about 10 meters above the ground, the hissing sound transitioned into a loud crack. The object's tail then split into smaller rays that fell toward the ground but vanished at a height of approximately three meters without leaving any physical traces. Jonsson noted that an Estonian worker in his company also witnessed the event, possibly at an earlier stage, but they were unable to discuss the details due to the language barrier.
När den var cirka 10 meter ovan marken övergick det fräsande ljudet i ett brak varefter svansen delade sig i mindre strålar som ramlade ned mot marken men försvann på cirka 3 meters höjd utan att efterlämna några spår.
