A Project 10073 record card detailing a 1954 sighting in Stalingrad, USSR, of an unidentified object that produced significant vibration and noise. The official conclusion identified the object as a probable rocket or shell.
This document is a Project 10073 record card documenting a UFO sighting that occurred in Stalingrad, USSR, during the spring of 1954. According to the report, a civilian witness observed an unknown object on two separate occasions. The object traveled from horizon to horizon, moving from the southeast to the northwest, and appeared to be in a climbing flight path. The sighting lasted approximately one minute. The witness reported that the object caused a significant amount of vibration in the air and emitted a screeching, whistling noise. The witness explicitly noted that this sound was distinct from the noise typically produced by an artillery shell in flight. The object itself could not be visually identified, with the witness only observing the resulting disturbance in the air. The official conclusion recorded on the card suggests that the phenomenon was likely a rocket or a shell of some sort, based on the observed flight characteristics and the duration of the event. The document includes a reference number, K245.6012-1, and is dated March 1954.
