They tell a lot about Taganai: they say, a ghost grandma wanders there, and UFOs constantly land. However, there is not a lot of evidence of all these tales - only an honest tourist word
But the Chelyabinsk travelers managed to shoot incomprehensible glowing balls on film. They arrived at the park - not in pursuit of devilry, but on a sports bike trip. We decided to stop at Bolshoy Taganai in the huts of the weather station.
- We were photographed against the background of the Taganay peaks, - Danil Alshanin told us. - And suddenly we see that a luminous ball is hanging in the sky. A few kilometers away from us, moreover, it dangles in one place, like a lantern. It doesn't look like a flying saucer, something like ball lightning. It is not clear due to what forces it hung there. Half an hour later it was completely dark, but this point was still glowing. And the next morning we did not see anything like it - this incomprehensible firefly disappeared.
The luminous point was photographed and even filmed. A bright ball is clearly visible in the pitch darkness. Above the semi-wild taiga, it's like some kind of backlight
- Yes, something is constantly flying here, - the shift worker at the meteorological station dismissed it. - We are already accustomed and do not pay attention. Either flashes in the sky, or columns glowing from somewhere in the forest shoot. Then they talk about the grandmother, but, thank God, this ghost has never met.
Marina Sereda, a researcher at the park, is convinced that all these anomalous phenomena are the result of a combination of geological and atmospheric phenomena. For example, the glow could appear due to the strong ionization of the air. And visions like the Taganai grandmother are hallucinations due to the environment too polluted in the lowlands. It is known that radon and inert gases come out there.
