SOVIET UFO SIGHTINGS IN INTERNATIONAL WATERS byl Paul Stonehill © 2011 L week O12 Lea metres. A gigantic pillar of water ascended as the sphere emerged from the sea, and collapsed some moments later. This observation was mentioned in a number of Russian publications. In the summer of 1972, there was a fascinating sighting. The shape- shifting UFO was observed by seamen aboard the Musson, a Soviet scientific ship. The vessel was approximately 300 miles from Bermuda. Early in the morning, the electrician (named Vagin), the radio operator and one of the navigators clearly observed an elliptical body moving through the cloudless sky. The body moved slowly, at a great altitude, from northwest to southeast. Reaching the zenith, the UFO changed its shape to that of a wheel, and then, distancing itself from the vessel, it again became an elongated elliptical body of silvery- white colour. All three observers looked at the object until it disappeared from view. This sighting was mentioned in an article by Valentin Psalomschikov, a Russian scientist, journalist and author, magazine. In 1976, the crew of the Soviet scientific research vessel Vladimir Vorobyov observed eight revolving white radial rays around 200 metres long. The rays emanated from a massive object, found by acoustic depth-finder at 20 metres below the ship. The depth of the Bay of Bengal in that area was 170 metres. This phenomenon lasted for 30 minutes. When the rays initially appeared, the sailors who were asleep woke up feeling frightened. This incident was reported in several Russian publications. he secret files of the Russian Toren Soviet) Navy contain much valuable information about sightings of UFOs and USOs (unidentified submarine objects). Soviet military researchers had been quite thorough and professional. The files have been largely inaccessible, even after the fall of the USSR. But through years of research and with help from colleagues in the former Soviet Union, modern Russia, Ukraine and other newly independent countries, | have been able to collect some interesting information, some of which is presented in this article. In August 1965, the crew of the steamship Raduga, while navigating in the Red Sea, observed an unusual phenomenon. At about two miles away from their vessel, a fiery sphere dashed out from under the water and hovered over the surface of the sea, illuminating it. The sphere was 60 metres in diameter, and it hovered above the sea at an altitude of 150 Marine Lightwheel Phenomenon? On 28 February 1977, the Soviet newspaper Vechernyaya Odessa published an interview with Yevgeny Lisenko, the captain of the motor ship Anton Makarenko. He said that while sailing the Strait of Malacca in Indonesian waters, five members of the crew witnessed a luminescence of gigantic proportions. It was at 2.00 am when they observed a luminescent wheel with "spokes". JUNE - JULY 2011 NEXUS ¢ 65 which was published in 2001 in NLO www.nexusmagazine.com
