- SOVIET SCIENTISTS CLAIM FLYING SAUCER FOUND IN ESTONIA
-

-
- PARIS (AFP): Soviet scientists say they are studying what they think
- is a 20 meter wide flying saucer from another planet found in Estonia.
-
- Several institutes have analyzed the suspected unidentified flying
- object and have come to the same conclusion.
-
- Colonel Marina Popovich wrote about the events in Sovietski Sport. The
- air force test pilot and president of the world association of female
- scientists is an expert on unexplained phenomena such as UFOs and
- abominable snowmen.
-
- She has been interested in flying saucers since coming across two
- Soviet pilots in hospital who had seen strange lights in the sky. One
- had his eyes affected by a strange radiation. The co-pilot had the
- calcium in his bones evapoted and several ribs broken during
- landing.
-
- Another crew of an Antonov-12 plane told her how on one ocasion [sic]
- all onboard power suddenly failed. They were landing in complete dark
- when another vessel of some kind suddenly lit up the whole area so they
- could see.
- The 60 ton plane landed without a problem.
-
- Popovich plans a journey to Estonia where the flying saucer was found
- six meters below the surface. Soviet experts are to attempt to raise it,
- and so far no one has been able to cut off a segment and several
- institutes have said is must be from another planet.
-
- In 1984 Popovich went in search of the Yeti with a Kiev University
- expedition to Pamir.
-
- "We went up 3,000 meters and set up guards around the camp, because we
- knew it comes out mainly at night.
-
- "We saw traces around the camp from the first day. It could break into
- cans of milk with its teeth and threw stones in fires and moved other
- objects."
