Sighting Report: Two Luminous Objects near Nåttarö, October 25

This document is a formal report submitted by Fanjunkare Carl S.R. Rosemi of the Fortifikationskåren to Generalmajor C.A. Ehrensvärd at the Swedish Defence Staff (Försvarsstaben). The report details a sighting that occurred on October 25th while the author was traveling from Nåttarö to Nynäshamn. At 1735, while near the skerry Båten, the author observed two luminous objects approaching the mainland from the east at high speed. The author notes that the objects could not be identified as astronomical phenomena. He describes the objects as being approximately half the size of a full moon and notes that their light was not white like a falling star. A notable feature described is a 'tail' that was zigzag-shaped, while the trajectory of the objects themselves was parabolic. The objects were observed at different altitudes and eventually extinguished at 1738. Upon extinguishing, they appeared to fall vertically toward the sea in the vicinity of Västerskär. The author mentions that it was difficult to determine the altitude of the objects relative to the horizon or treetops due to the darkness at the time of the incident. The report includes a reference to a bearing or direction plotted on a 1:100,000 scale map.
