At the end of February and beginning of March 1979, part of the students of the F-32 group (Yaroslavl State University university) I was on a hiking trip from Danilovo to Rybinsk.

On March 1, between 21 and 22 hours, these tourists, while in the village of Bolshye Dikushi (Poshekhonsky district, Yaroslavl region), observed a phenomenon in the cloudless starry sky that attracted their attention.

An object very similar to a comet flew to the southwest, the trajectory of which passed over the village. The plume from the object had the shape of a cone with a solution of about 30 °, which was blown away by the wind to the left. The phenomenon had a yellowish color "like a light bulb." The top of the cone was characterized by a stronger glow. The plume slowly dissipated in the sky. The phenomenon was noticed when the top of the cone was at an altitude of 30-40 degrees. He slowly moved towards the horizon, at about the speed of a parachutist, and after 7-10 minutes disappeared behind the forest.

No sound or light phenomena were observed.

The described object attracted the attention of eyewitnesses with its extraordinary, beautiful sight.
