I read your article in the newspaper "Leninskoe Znamya" dated July 14 this year. I will venture to describe what I saw "something unusual", at least for me.

It was in winter, in January, on the 16th, at 19-20 pm local time, Tyumen region, north. We were returning from fishing from the north side of Agan, in the direction of Nizhnevartovsk, and saw "something unusual" through the window of the car.

A ball of the color of a pale sun or Moon hovered above the horizon, with a radius of 50 cm. at a height, of course, it is difficult to determine. Fan-shaped rays, as if misty, of the same color and shape, went down from it. There were 5 or 6 of them.

Very beautiful. The rays did not disperse and remained steady, We were traveling at a speed of 70 km/h towards the object. It lasted about 10 minutes.

We had a dispute, what is it? Who says UFO, who is a satellite, who is into what a lot. And here is Comrade. Konovalov S.Ya. said: "Let's see!"

We stopped the car and got out. And "it" has already gained height and rushed upwards at an angle, not vertically, but precisely at an angle. His train remained above the forest. At the moment of climbing, only the flickering of stars relative to him was visible, because the sky was clear-blue and starry. It was perfectly visible for years. He was fast. I still remember this phenomenon.

We argued all the way to Nizhnevartovsk, what could it be? If it's a satellite, then why is it at one point? Of course, you can't exactly describe this sight, but when you see it, you'll be surprised. After that we had a lecture about space (a lecturer from Sverdlovsk). I described to him what I had seen. He smiled and said: "Probably bollid." Well, the car, so let the car. And I would like to know what it was?

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

Meteor

Meteor, "shooting star" is a phenomenon that occurs when small meteor bodies (for example, fragments of comets or asteroids) burn up in the Earth's atmosphere. A similar phenomenon of greater intensity (brighter than magnitude -4) it's called a fireball.

Booster, the rocket and tracks

For UFOs often take stages of rockets, parts of space ships burning in the atmosphere, the launches of various missile technology for military purposes, etc., and traces from them. They attract attention mostly in the dark, but in the day time have a greater aura of mystery.

Formation of the track of the launch vehicle occurs in the tropopause (the layer between the troposphere and stratosphere), which sharply reduced the vertical temperature gradient. The emergence of the so-called "jellyfish" influenced by water vapor, which are subject to enhanced condensation.
