UNCLASSIFIED FOUO Page: 12 ConeateDateci PROD Reports, 1988 - 1994 DocUMDt 4 of 9 of 42 Page 6 refers to "the political character" of cycles of attitudes toward the publication of reports on UPO sightings. The article notes that during politically conservative periods, Soviet censors have been able to prohibit the publication of such reports. Unlike those "cold periods," the Soviet Union is now in "hot tilles" and the public is being encouraged to focus its attention on UFOs. The author of the article points out that even the prestigious Academy of Sciences has established official organs to study UFOs and disseminate information about thell. 23. The 22 February issue of RABOCBAYA TRIBUNA published a report by Krasnoyarsk militiamen who stated that two disk-shaped UFOs had followed their patrol cars, moving slowly above them in a "parallel course" for 3 or 4 kilometers. The militiamen maintained that.when the patrol cars stopped at the village of Drokino, one of the "saucers" landed on a hill near the cars and harrassed them with rays of yellow and red light before flying away. 24. The 17 February issue of RABOCBAYA TRIBUNA devoted its entire fourth page to UFOs, including a discussion of the question as to whether or not UFOs are being flown by extraterrestrials. 25. The 24 December 1989 issue of TRUD published a report from two deputy chiefs of the Moscow-based 27th Militia Division who claimed that they and their subordinates had tracked a slowly moving UPO flying at low altitude through the outskirts of Moscow. According to TRUD, a m..ber of the expert commission on anomalous phenomena in the USSR Academy of Sciences, Tu. Platov, states that there is a possibility that the militiamen mistook Venus, seen "through complex atmospheric conditions," for a UPO. 26. The 5 December issue of SOTSIALISTICBBSKAYA INDUSTRIYA described a recent Japanese expedition to the site of the Tunguska meteorite in Siberia. In theory, a great meteor exploded there in 1908, destroying trees over an area of hundreds of square miles, although no meteorite has ever been found. The Japanese team stated that their research at the site clearly indicated that the explosion had been caused by the crash of a nuclear- powered spacecraft. The Japanese scientists erected a monument at the site--the first m..orial in the USSR to commemorate a 010, according to SOTSIALISTICBBSKAYA INDUSTRIYA. 27. 10UO UNCLASSIFIED FB PN 90-123
