18 Sep 1938 in Siberia, in the lower reaches of the Yenisei and the Ob estuary, there was a mysterious solar Eclipse. In any astronomical reference this Eclipse was not provided. Throughout the Soviet Union, as elsewhere in the world, the dawn of this day was replaced by night, day was replaced by dawn, and only the inhabitants of Igarka, Halmar Garden Tarko-Saleh, Yao-Fat and Nenets camp, not marked on any maps, were the witnesses of extraordinary accident.

This is how it is witness:

"On the morning of 18 September, the power of the cloud was apparently small, as in 8 o'clock in the morning local time, has become quite light.

8: 30 a.m. the observed decrease in light. At the same time the color of the clouds, especially in the areas of depression, began to assume a yellowish-brown, sometimes red-brown color. By 9 p.m. the lighting changed dramatically, seemed to consider all through the dark filter. The brown tones of the clouds intensified. There has come twilight.

At the beginning of the tenth hour of the phenomenon of darkening and discoloration of light attracted the attention of local people. The premises began to turn on the lights. By 10 o'clock came the black night. The lights in the houses visible at a distance of 1.5 kilometers... White fence posts... visible not farther than 1 meter from them. By 10 o'clock 30 minutes seemed to have disappeared the last vestiges of light. Objects ceased to be noticeable even at very close distance. "The sun is dead, what do we do?" spoke the Nenets gathered for the winter.

In 10 hours 32 minutes from the horizon marked by a narrow strip of light, which covered the North-West, North-East and after the break in the East appeared faintly in the North. Strip in the Northern part of the horizon expanded, I swivels; seemed to hesitate the edge of a huge curtain relating to the ages of the horizon, sometimes removed from it by 2-3 degrees. The rest of the sky still black ostanetsja, literally "hopeless"...

Approximately 14 hours were restored lighting, typical of a cloudy day with low cloud and rain."

So, some impassable to the sun's rays barrier that appeared over a vast territory of hundreds of thousands of square kilometers, 6 hours turned day into night.

For. the explanation of this extraordinary occurrence, it was proposed several hypotheses. Most likely, in the opinion of academician Vernadsky, is the following assumption. In space there is a huge amount of dust — tiny particles of metal and stone, continuously penetrating the earth's atmosphere.

It is possible that occasionally the dust penetrates to the Ground in dense clouds, causing the blackout, similar to that described above. The study of cosmic dust is of great interest because it, like meteorites, contains, probably, a radioactive substance. Together with the dust on the Ground get huge amount of radioactive cosmic energy. This circumstance, in the opinion of academician Vernadsky, is due the explanation of many geological phenomena — the formation of mountains, eruption of volcanoes in the other. Further study of these interesting problems is conducted in the Committee on meteorites of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR.
