The editor-in-chief and general director of Komsomolskaya Pravda, Vladimir Sungorkin, met an unidentified flying object in the taiga. Natalya Varsegova, special correspondent of "KP", told about this in Yekaterinburg at the annual Dyatlov conference. Sungorkin kept this personal story for many years, not making it public, but recently he told the whole world about it through his newspaper.
According to the journalist, in 1979, when Vladimir Sungorkin was a staff correspondent for Komsomolskaya Pravda on the construction of the Baikal-Amur Mainline (BAM), he was included in an expedition of geologists. During the passage through the taiga from the village of Zolotinka to Chania, they witnessed a very strange phenomenon. “We were driving four large tracked all-terrain vehicles and stopped in a clearing. The object appeared from the south and walked strictly north. Someone remembers several "spotlights", one ray was "walking", - says Natalya.
At first the geologists decided that they were looking for them from a helicopter (since the group did not meet the deadline), but when they realized that there was no sound from the "helicopter", it became clear that something was wrong here. According to Varsegova, one of the BAM members was so scared that he ran behind the all-terrain vehicle. The object at this time continued to approach, covering people with its light, and then the driver of one of the all-terrain vehicles ran up to the car and started blinking headlights, and also yelling loudly.
The UFO "got scared" and began to smoothly go into the sky. “One of the guys had a good Zeiss binoculars with him, brought from Germany, and they made out a chrome-plated smooth bottom and something like 'light music' around the circumference of this bottom. There was also some kind of gas plume, which then dissipated,”says Varsegova.
According to her, two members of this expedition have already died, but she managed to find and interview everyone else - people give very similar "testimonies". By the way, a month later, scientists from Moscow arrived at the meeting place with the UFO (they were brought there by one of the expedition drivers). The researchers recorded a very high level of radiation in the place over which the object was hanging. True, these scientists themselves have not yet been found.
