Characteristics of the phenomenon The least that can be said is that the form of the phenomena observed, their dimensions,' colou.rsetc, are of the most variable, as can be j'ldged fromthe following tables. -FORM COLOUR NATURE OF LUMINOSITY I VARIOUS 1~ FIXED BUW VERY VARIOUS 1'?% VARIOUS 1~ PIN-POINTS 9% CHANGING 1'7% NON LUMINOUS 1% ·~tED ~ METALLI<; li'i't GLOWING 1CY.A) ' OVOID 14% WHITE 17% BRIGHT 1,5% CIGAR SHAPE, CYLINDER 1~ ORANG~ 1fa BRILLIANT 18% ROUND, CIRCULAR, RED 16% LUMINOUS 4~ SPmmiCAL 30% DISCS 1$ I r ~ Dimensions Here again we find a very wide range of data •.
