Rapport: Iakttagit raketsken (Report: Observation of rocket light)
AI-Generated Summary
A 1946 Swedish police report documenting a sighting of a high-speed, silent, rocket-like object with a yellowish flame, observed by two witnesses in Morgongåva.
On August 12, 1946, a report was filed by foreman Hans Johansson and Maurits Liljeström regarding an aerial observation made on the evening of August 11, 1946. At 20:47, while located at the crossroads near Molnebo, just outside the Morgongåva community, the witnesses observed what they believed to be a rocket bomb. The object traveled in a north-to-south direction. Due to the twilight conditions, the projectile itself was not visible; however, the witnesses observed a flame approximately one meter in length with a diameter of 5 to 6 inches. The flame emitted a yellowish light, which was most intense near the projectile. The witnesses estimated the altitude of the object to be between 1000 and 2000 meters, with a speed of at least 1000 km/h. No sound was heard during the observation. The witnesses described the flame as having the same shape as a flame from a blowtorch. The report was signed by Gunnar Enlund of the Heby District and forwarded to the defense area commander for F.O. 47 in Uppsala.
Iakttagarna tilllägger att eldskenet hade samma form som en låga från bhåslampa.
