Unique pictures came from Kazakhstan. From Mikhail Vrachevsky - chief technical manager for labor protection of the Eastern branch of KazTransCom JSC. It deals with trunk communications and serves oil pipelines. Traveling work. As Mikhail puts it, “signalmen wander in the rain and cold in different places, and see a little more than the rest”. They are surprised. Taking pictures
The snow phenomenon is located near the Russian border: in the Zhelezinsky district of the Pavlodar region, in the floodplain of the Irtysh river - where a branch branches off from the Omsk-Pavlodar highway to the village of Oktyabrskoye. The oil pipeline is buried parallel to the route, several tens of meters away - a circle appeared in its buffer zone.
- I saw the pictures by chance, - says Vrachevsky, - began to ask. And it turned out that our guys have met such "pictures" for a long time and often. They have even ceased to consider them as something supernatural.
According to the engineers, they always came across the circles one at a time. But there could be several of them along the route. Sometimes circles were seen every 20 - 30 kilometers. As a rule, they appeared after a snowfall - on fresh snow. But the very moment of occurrence of the phenomenon, no one was able to catch - only the result.
The patterns are formed by concentric circles - rings of increasing diameter. The circles are snow rolls, the height of which is about 10-15 centimeters. One circle contains about 30 rings. Up to a radius of 4 - 5 meters, they - rings - are very clearly formed. The more distant ones seem to fade away. And they become barely noticeable at a distance of over 10 meters from the center.
PROBABLY THE HEDGEHOGS DID NOT PASS
Of course, Kazakh snow circles are not as intricate as their famous English counterparts, formed by ears of lodged wheat. But it is obvious that they are no less mysterious. And are they analogues? It is not known, after all, whether these phenomena have the same nature or different.
By the way, the British have circles only in the fields with cereals. And between April and October. That is, they definitely need a "canvas" in the form of living plants. Snow-covered fields in England are difficult - usually in the counties famous for their circles, it is warm. Although this anomalous winter, which surprised Europe, they were severely frozen and thoroughly covered with snow. But there were no reports of any circles.

Evil skeptics claim that all bread circles - especially those with intricate patterns - are made by jokers. Trampled with sticks and ropes. And the most difficult ones do not exist at all. Like, drawn on the computer. Enthusiasts object. And they swear that they can easily distinguish real circles from fake ones. Several characteristic features are cited - anomalies in plants and magnetic fields.
Nobody took measurements in snowy circles. But it is obvious that it was not people who poured or trampled them. The snow cover is not a field of ears. Any extraneous trace would be visible. And nobody saw any extraneous tracks in the snow.
How true English circles are formed is completely incomprehensible. At least no one has yet managed to make something similar using the proposed anomalous ideas. And there are plenty of hypotheses, especially not reproducible at all. Quite serious scientists at one time tried to prove that hedgehogs trample circles in grain fields, performing mating dances. There are a lot of people who associate circles with aliens. As with the distant ones, they say, in this way they send us news from their galaxies, and with the neighbors, who for some reason are throwing ears of corn from their "plates" with certain energy rays. Or, in extreme cases, they crush them with the bottoms of "plates". Which, by the way, does not look like a completely crazy assumption. It even works in explaining snow circles. To start.
WHAT IS IT?
Obviously, atmospheric vortices could not form snow circles. These drawings are very clear. Mikhail Vrachevsky has several more exotic hypotheses.
“The guys said that they saw similar circles several times in the summer and on the sand,” explains the chief technical manager. - In this regard, I remembered a school physics lesson in which the teacher visualized waves. Hit the plate with sand with a stick. He jumped up and lay down in rings. Could it be that circles on the ground are formed in some seismic manner?
- It is much more interesting to think that the concussion is a consequence of switching the operating mode of the anti-gravity engine of aliens, - continues Vrachevsky. - But the point, apparently, is the oil pipeline, the pipes of which are under high pressure - up to 60 atmospheres. An element like a branch or a plug could vibrate and create corresponding waves on the surface.
It is possible that the phenomenon has an electrical nature. According to eyewitnesses, circles appear where high-voltage overhead power lines that power cathodic corrosion protection stations for pipelines intersect with underground structures.
Mikhail Vrachevsky promised to send new pictures of the circles as soon as he receives them. But, perhaps, you, readers, already have something similar - in the sense of photos and observations? Please send. Together with their stories and explanations.
