A previously-classified CIA intelligence report from 1973 documenting a Soviet citizen's observation of a luminous, bright-green airborne object in the summer of 1973. One of the few PURSUE entries with an explicitly Cold-War-era USSR provenance; reproduced in full as part of Release 02.
In October 1955, four Americans travelling by train through the Soviet Union — among them U.S. Senator Richard Russell of Georgia, then chairman-in-waiting of the Senate Armed Services Committee — watched a luminescent, greenish-yellow object climb and pass above their train between Baku and Tiflis, now Tbilisi. PURSUE Release 04 declassifies the CIA's debriefing memo and its companion analysis, which concluded the sighting could 'probably be explained as steep climbing aircraft or missiles.' The analysis also weighs the 1953 Robertson Panel's findings and Project 'Y,' the real U.S.-Canadian program then trying to build a saucer-shaped aircraft.
