This document is a formal military report from the Norrland Coast Naval District, dated August 23, 1946, concerning the sighting of an unidentified rocket-like projectile. The incident occurred on the evening of August 22, 1946, at 21:55 in Härnösand, Sweden. Two military personnel, identified as Bergström and Feldt from the 16th Company, reported observing the object while standing on a quay. According to the report, the object moved at high speed across the harbor. Bergström noted the object traveled toward Murberget and estimated its altitude at approximately 500 meters. Feldt, observing from a different position, estimated the altitude at 600 meters and noted the object's flight path was parallel to the quay at a 20-degree angle. Both witnesses described the object as having a bright, bluish light, an elongated black body, and a long, bluish smoke trail. The sky was clear at the time of the observation, which lasted approximately 10 seconds. The report was compiled by Captain Sven Jurell and forwarded to the Chief of the Navy.
