This document is a Swedish military report regarding the radar tracking of an unidentified object, referred to as a 'space projectile' (rymdprojektil), on August 20, 1950. The object was tracked between 21:31 and 21:40. It initially appeared on a bearing of 89 degrees with a speed between 700 and 880 km/h. The radar echo strength was recorded as 2 and fluctuated significantly. At a distance of 6 km, the object changed its bearing to 170 degrees, and the radar echo strength increased. The report notes that a light was observed outdoors. As the object moved to a distance of approximately 150 km, its speed decreased, and the radar echo strength dropped to 0-1. The object eventually disappeared from radar at a distance of 18 km on a bearing of 178 degrees. The document includes a handwritten note dated August 21, 1950, at 09:10, requesting a repetition of the report.
