Under the police state of Soviet rule, for almost a century the subject of UFOs was strickly forbidden. Yet the underground world remained active, and under the bloody clench of the Russian empire the research continued, as the secret police and daring rogue scientists amassed thousands of reports and directed them into secret research programs.
With perestroika and the fall of The Union, the scope of the UFO issue finally fell into western light. In this volume by Phillip Mantle and Paul Stonehill, the initial findings are exposed for western readers. Unabated by official denial, from all corners of the Union, UFOs continued to perplex the authorities throughout Russia's bloody history.
From the battlefields of Chechnya to the disaster of Chernobyl, and from the Siberian wastelands to the Tunguska swamplands, UFOs would intrude on soviet life. Mysterious Sky - Soviet UFO Phenomenon.
