Sighting Report — Sandhamnsgatan 1, Stockholm, July 22, 1946
AI-Generated Summary
This document is a 1946 sighting report submitted to the Swedish military staff by a citizen who observed an unidentified, luminous, elongated object moving at high speed over Stockholm.
On July 24, 1946, an individual named B. Lagerwall, associated with the Handelskommissionen, submitted a report to the Militärstaberna in Stockholm regarding an aerial observation made two days prior. On July 22, 1946, at approximately 16:00, Lagerwall observed an object from a balcony at Sandhamnsgatan 1 in Stockholm. The witness described the object as strongly luminous with a yellow glow and noted that it appeared elongated. The object was observed moving horizontally at high speed, with a trajectory estimated to be between the northwest and west. The witness noted that the object stood out clearly against a background of dark clouds. Lagerwall explicitly stated that they could not judge the distance or the altitude of the object. Furthermore, the witness addressed the possibility of the object being an aircraft, stating that they considered it extremely unlikely that the phenomenon was caused by solar reflections from a metallic-shining airplane.
Jag anser det ytterst osannolikt att företeelsen orsakades av solreflexer från ett metallglänsande flygplan.
