Unidentified Object Over Kirkenes in 1952

Summary

In September 1952, three forestry workers observed a flat and round object hovering motionless at 500 meters above the town of Kirkenes, Norway. The object remained still for a while before suddenly disappearing at high speed toward the northwest. The witnesses insisted their report was true, even though no one else saw it. CIA documents that record this incident show the seriousness with which each report was treated, even in remote areas.

The original document, written in Norwegian, was published in 1952 and is part of a set of classified CIA reports on unidentified aerial phenomena. Despite OCR errors and typos, the testimony remains clear and straightforward. This case, like many others, remains unexplained and contributes to the vast archive of mysteries surrounding UFOs.
