A report by a Swedish civil defence official regarding a silent, luminous object observed descending and landing in Stäket on August 12, 1946. The witness was unable to identify a solid structure associated with the light.
On August 12, 1946, at approximately 9:00 PM, Åke Gyllenram, serving as a First Bureau Director in the National Swedish Board of Civil Defence, observed an unidentified aerial phenomenon near Stäket, in the vicinity of the Västerås railway line. Gyllenram reported seeing a luminous object descending slowly from the northeast at an angle of approximately 45 degrees. He estimated the distance to the object to be around 100 meters. The descent was completely silent, and the object appeared to land in a garden belonging to the Sontag family. Gyllenram noted that he could not observe the landing itself because trees obstructed his view, and he was unable to discern any solid body associated with the light.
Det hela var fullkomligt ljudlöst.
