A comet-like object flew from west to east, leaving behind a glowing cylindrical plume. A few minutes later, a flash occurred and the "head" of the object was separated, so that the trail remained behind it. The UFO flew further, still leaving a trail, but less wide, the rays seemed to go in four directions from it. After some time, the UFO disappeared from sight.
Approximately at the same time (19:35 Moscow time) from Baikonur in Kazakhstan the Soyuz carrier rocket with the Progress space truck was launched to the International Space Station. However, experts deny the likelihood that the residents of Bishkek watched the flight of the rocket - the rocket was launched in the opposite direction from Kyrgyzstan.
Similarly, at about the same time, many UFOs were observed from the territory of Azerbaijan. Director of the Shamakhi Astrophysical Observatory Eyyub Guliyev, commenting on the information about the appearance of UFOs in the sky over Absheron, noted the following:
“No UFOs were seen from the side of our observatory. In order to claim that these were unidentified flying objects, one must have strong evidence on hand.
It could have been an atmospheric phenomenon. However, to clarify this situation, the first step is to conduct a thorough analysis based on the collected materials."
Recall: in December 2009, an unidentified flying object of artificial origin was recorded over Norway, which moved in a spiral, and then disappeared. The local press called it a "Russian rocket". Since the next test launch of the Bulava was expected in early December, a version emerged that the Norwegians saw it.
