The Most Famous Russian UFO Case: The Dalnegorsk UFO Crash

On January 29, at 7:55 p.m. in Dalnegorsk Russia, a silent object, described as a reddish sphere, flew over the sky, and crashed into the Izvestkovaya Mountain or Hill 611. As the object passed over, dozens of Russians would witness the event and the strange way the object crashed. All witnesses reported that the object “jerked” or “jumped” two to four times before then dropping like a rock. Then, the object burned intensely for about an hour. 

Still as fascinating as this event was, perhaps what’s more interesting is what happened after the event. 

Eight days after the UFO crash at Hill 611, on February 8, 1986, at 8:30 p.m., two more yellowish spheres came in from the north. Reaching the site of the crash, the UFOs circled the site four times, then turned back to the north and flew away. Then around a year and a half later, on November 28, 1987, at 11:24 p.m. 32 flying objects appeared from seemingly nowhere. There were hundreds of witnesses, including the military and civilians.

The objects flew over 12 different cities, The objects moved noiselessly, at an altitude between 150 to 800 meters. Surprisingly, no eyewitness actually thought they were UFOs. Those who saw the objects assumed they were aircraft involved in some disaster or falling meteorites. Yet, as the objects flew over homes, they created television and radio interference. 

In the ensuing days after the initial January 29 crash, expeditions would form to investigate the wreckage.

The first was Dr. Valeris Dvuzhilni who arrived at the site two days after the crash. Since the crash occurred in the winter, deep snow was covering much of the area. But at the site of the crash, which was located on a rocky ledge, there was no snow. All around the site, there were “smoky” looking pieces of a metal like debris, with some “sprayed”-like, in the form of solidified balls. At the edge of the site a tree-stump was found. It was burnt and emitting a chemical smell. The objects collected at the site were later dubbed as “little balls” or “tiny nets”. 

(Did this Russian Woman Converse with an Alien?)

Closer examination of these revealed very strange and unusual properties that the elements were not from this earth. One of the “tiny nets” contained torn and very thin threads, around 17 micrometers. Each of these tiny threads consisted of even thinner fibers, which were intertwined.

As Soviet scientists began analyzing the material, they realized it was extraordinary and not yet of this earth. To help better understand what they were dealing with. scientists melted the material inside a vacuum. Strangely, some pieces would spread over a base, much like butter being melted on a stove. However, other material would form into balls, and around half of the balls were covered with convex glass-like structures. Interestingly, the tiny nets recovered were almost indestructible with multiple tests being performed such as submerging in strong acids and organic solvents. They also contained high concentrations of gold. 

Some have called the crash the Roswell Incident of Russia. Like Roswell there were a number of witnesses to the event, but the evidence doesn’t appear to exist. At Dalnegorsk, Various evidence of “alien remains/activity” were reported to be found, but never substantially proven. Furthermore, surrounding rocks had deposits of a “silver metal” which was determined to later be common lead. The site itself has been reported to have high levels of electromagnetic activity, causing planes to avoid the area. Still believers in the crash, will point to the variety of eyewitnesses who saw the crash, albeit often with different reports. 

Dr. Dvuzhilni , a biologist by profession, went on to publish numerous articles on the event and dedicate his life to studying ufology. His conclusion was that it was a malfunctioning alien space probe that crashed into Hill 611.

One day, perhaps, more documents will surface that show what exactly happened that day.
