Events similar to height 611.
On January 29, 1986, at about 8 p.m., residents of the coastal city of Dalnegorsk noticed a red-orange ball the size of half the moon flying by. No one heard sounds during the flight, and the ball itself flew parallel to the surface of the Earth. Later it was determined that the speed of the ball was about 15 m/s, the height above the Earth's surface was about 700-800 meters. Before height 611 (another name is Mount Izvestkovaya), the ball smoothly went down at an angle of about 60 degrees and fell to the top. None of the eyewitnesses heard the sound of the fall, except for a schoolboy who was at the base of the hill. He spoke of a weak thud. Employees observed this phenomenon private security Ministry of Internal Affairs, schoolchildren, teachers, editor of a local newspaper... Dozens of eyewitnesses. HOW IT WAS 14 YEARS AGO The most interesting is the testimony of Vladimir Kondakov, a mechanic at the Dalnegorsk food supply. At that moment, when the ball flew over his head in the direction of height 611, the eyewitness was at the bus station. "The ball flew low, and it seemed that it would blow away part of the chimney of the Dalpolimetall processing plant. It was round, without any protrusions or indentations. It seemed to be made of metal and resembled slightly red-hot stainless steel in color. I thought it was some kind of military shell. I didn’t hear any sounds. I saw how it fell at a height, but I also didn’t hear the sounds of the fall. The ground caught fire at this place ... "Witnesses describe in different ways what happened after the fall of the object. Some pointed out that he fell with a flash and did not rise again. Others, including schoolgirls, who were at the Stroitel stadium, said that the ball slowly rose and fell over the hill. At the moment of ascent, it shone brightly, and when it descended, the intensity of the glow was weak. The intensity of burning at the crash site was compared by eyewitnesses with electric welding or a short circuit on a power line. According to the testimony of employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, burning on the hill continued until late at night, although it was a flat area and, apart from a small stump, there was nothing to burn there. But the stump could not give such a bright glow ... The object's flight path passed from the southwest away from the Chinese-Russian border. EXPEDITION TO THE SITE OF THE UFO DISASTER On the third day after the fall, a group led by Dalnegorsk ufologist Valery Dvuzhilny climbed to the height. The snow was about half a meter deep, it was extremely difficult to climb, given the large curvature of the mountainside. The site was found quickly, there was no snow on it at all. All of it was thickly littered with blackened fragments of siliceous schist, the fracture of which was quite fresh, indicating recent events. There was a sharp and strong smell of something chemical, reminiscent of the smell of products of dry sublimation of wood. The platform itself, 3x3 meters in size, is located on a steep rock ledge. On some fragments of flints and on the nearest wall, splashes and drops of silvery metal, which later turned out to be lead, were visible. A large amount of it was found in the form of balls scattered throughout the site. The smallest are about 0.1 cm in diameter, the largest weighing up to 3.5 grams. In total, four large balls (the name is conditional, since we are not talking about the ideal form) were found four, moreover, if the outlines are more precisely defined, in the form of parallelepipeds with fairly clear edges. In terms of the content of a number of elements, these remains of the object did not correspond much to local lead and, obviously, belonged to the object itself. There are no ore bodies and secondary halos in that place. In total, about 70 g of lead, 5 g of "mesh" material and about 40 g of the so-called iron balls were found. The fall of the object occurred in the zone of increased magnetic anomaly. Hill 611 is surrounded by two faults from the north and south. One of them (the most powerful, of Triassic origin) is 2 km wide. It cuts Dalnegorsk from north to south and goes into the sea. The group of Valery Dvuzhilny on the day of the ascent photographed the place of the fall with two cameras, but when the films were developed, they turned out to be "clean". Radioactivity at the site was normal. The most unusual was the material, called "mesh". The structure of this material is still a mystery. It is a flat and voluminous pieces with many holes and jumpers. The material itself has a black, shiny, glass-like appearance and does not dissolve in strong organic solvents and acids, even with prolonged exposure and high temperatures Oh. One of the samples of the unusual "mesh" was irradiated in Tashkent. It was revealed that the composition of the material includes scandium, gold, lanthanum, sodium, samarium. Not less than interesting riddle presented "mesh" in 1988 during X-ray diffraction analysis. Prior to heating in vacuum, peaks of gold, silver, nickel, and silicon were distinct. After heating in vacuum, the peaks of gold, silver, and nickel disappeared, but the peaks of alpha-titanium, molybdenum, and rhenium appeared. Where did some elements disappear and where did others come from? In another sample, after heating in vacuum, peaks of beryllium sulfide appeared. The content of precious metals is striking: gold in the "net" is 1100 g per ton. For information: with a much lower gold content in the rock (4 g per ton), the industrial development of gold begins. Of greatest interest were quartz filaments, detected by microdiffraction, each 17 microns thick, inside which there is a gold wire. AFTER THE AJIOTA In 1988-89, a group of ufologists from Vladivostok worked at height 611 and in its vicinity. The expedition included doctors, biologists and chemists, the military, pilots, and engineers. Several square kilometers of forest near the UFO crash site were combed. Found additional remnants of the exploded object. In 1988-94, Vladivostok ufologists were guides on expeditions to a height of 611 ufologists from Japan, the USA, China, Canada, Belgium, Sweden... The microscopic remains found were valued by foreign experts as worth their weight in gold. Visiting ufologists had no doubts about the alien origin of the Dalnegorsk object. In 1994, Paramount Pictures filmed documentary about the Dalnegorsk phenomenon and the work of the Vladivostok Association of Ufologists. It seems that abroad the opinion about the Dalnegorsk phenomenon is unambiguous - this is a UFO of alien origin. In Russia, about the height of 611 today, probably, they have already forgotten. Although it was a couple of years later, a pilgrimage of all eneloshniks to Dalnegorsk, when Dalnegorsk contactees reported that a UFO had allegedly landed by aliens right on the field of the Stroitel stadium. Thousands of citizens former USSR rushed to Dalnegorsk and spent the night in tents around the stadium and at the stadium itself. The UFO didn't arrive... Disappointed enthusiasts, regretting the money and time spent, went home. Several people were then taken directly from the stadium to a psychiatric hospital. The Dalnegorsk contactees were branded with shame. Against this background, interest in the Dalnegorsk UFO dried up. Although, being abroad and communicating with fellow ufologists, the first thing I hear is: "Oh, Dalnegorsk! Height 611!" On July 4, 2000, on the International Day of Ufology, the Vladivostok Association of Ufologists, as usual, took those who wished to a height of 611. Among them are specialists from Japan, China, Korea, the USA ... Russian ufologists living outside the region have been at the height since 1990 did not notice. Although to this day, height 611 is perhaps the only place in Russia where the material remains of a UFO that exploded on the hill were found. By the way, today a gram of the Dalnegorsk "net", as ufologists from Japan told me, is estimated at 500 dollars. True, last year, despite all efforts, nothing unusual was found at the height of 611. Cameras work fine, without failures. The glade was overgrown with grass, and almost the entire stump was taken away for souvenirs.

Height 611.
Later it was determined that the speed of the ball was about 15 m/s, the height above the Earth's surface was about 700-800 meters. Before height 611 (another name is Mount Izvestkovaya), the ball smoothly went down at an angle of about 60 degrees and fell to the top. None of the eyewitnesses heard the sound of the fall, except for a schoolboy who was at the base of the hill. He spoke of a weak thud. This phenomenon was observed by employees of the private security of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, schoolchildren, teachers, the editor of a local newspaper, and dozens of eyewitnesses.
The most interesting is the testimony of Vladimir Kondakov, a mechanic in the Dalnegorsk food supply. At that moment, when the ball flew over his head in the direction of height 611, the eyewitness was at the bus station. “The balloon was flying low, and it seemed that it would blow away part of the chimney of the Dalpolimetall processing plant. It was round, without any protrusions or indentations. It appeared to be made of metal and was the color of slightly red-hot stainless steel. I thought it was some kind of military projectile. I didn't hear any sounds. I saw how he fell at a height, but did not hear the sounds of the fall either. The ground caught fire at this place."
Witnesses describe in different ways what happened after the fall of the object. Some pointed out that he fell with a flash and did not rise again. Others, including schoolgirls, who were at the Stroitel stadium, said that the ball slowly rose and fell over the hill.

In total, four large balls (the name is conditional, since we are not talking about the ideal form) were found four, moreover, if the outlines are more precisely defined, in the form of parallelepipeds with fairly clear edges.
The balls were scattered all over the area, their sizes varied from 3 to 6 mm. Weight from 80 mgy to the largest conglomerate, consisting of 4 sintered, weighing 850 mgy. The shape of the majority is drop-shaped. The first attempts to grind them for spectral analysis with the help of an instrument were not successful. They could not be drilled, filed, with great difficulty they yielded to processing with a diamond tool, i.e., the strength is incredibly high. Chemical composition they were also heterogeneous, which indicated that the object was of artificial origin and had various alloys.
The fall of the object occurred in the zone of increased magnetic anomaly. Hill 611 is surrounded by two faults from the north and south. One of them (the most powerful, of Triassic origin) is 2 km wide. It cuts Dalnegorsk from north to south and goes into the sea.

The material itself is of a black shiny glass-like appearance, does not dissolve in strong organic solvents and acids, even with prolonged exposure and high temperatures.
One of the samples of the unusual "mesh" was irradiated for nuclear reactor in Tashkent and analyzed by the neutron activation method. It was revealed that the composition of the material includes scandium, gold, lanthanum, sodium, samarium. An equally interesting mystery was presented by the "mesh" in 1988 during X-ray diffraction analysis. Prior to heating in vacuum, peaks of gold, silver, nickel, and silicon were distinct. After heating in vacuum, the peaks of gold, silver, and nickel disappeared, but the peaks of alpha-titanium, molybdenum, and rhenium appeared. Where did some elements disappear and where did others come from? In another sample, after heating in vacuum, peaks of beryllium sulfide appeared.
In the presence of atmospheric oxygen, the “mesh” burns out while maintaining its shape at a temperature of about 1000 degrees, but in a vacuum it can withstand up to 2000 degrees. The test for superconductivity is negative, but at 120 degrees K, in liquid nitrogen, it shows super magnetic properties similar to meteorite glasses. At the same time, it behaves under normal room conditions as a dielectric, with a slight heating - as a semiconductor, and when heated in a vacuum - as a conductor of electric current.
In 1988-89, a group of ufologists from Vladivostok worked at height 611 and in its vicinity. The expedition included doctors, biologists and chemists, the military, pilots, and engineers. Several square kilometers of forest near the UFO crash site were combed. Found additional remnants of the exploded object.

In Russia, today, probably, they have already forgotten about the height of 611.

Dalnegorsk contactees were branded with shame. Against this background, interest in the Dalnegorsk UFO dried up. Although, being abroad and communicating with fellow ufologists, the first thing I hear is: “Oh, Dalnegorsk! Height 611!”
At one time, Russian ufologists and other specialists, as well as scientists from Japan, the USA, China, Korea, Canada, Belgium, and Sweden worked at height 611. Their interest in this hill is by no means accidental, because an event, by the standards of world ufology, was unique there.
In hot pursuit
In the evening, at 19:55, on January 29, 1986, something strange happened in the Primorsky Territory near the town of Dalnegorsk. A luminous object with a diameter of about 2 meters crashed into the hill, known as height 611, and exploded.
The top of the hill is visible in almost the entire city, so a large number of people observed the flight and crash of the UFO. local residents. A luminous ball crashed into a limestone rock, tearing off a fragment of 2-3 cubic meters from it, and after two bright flashes, a fire started on the top of the hill, similar to an electric welding flame, which lasted about an hour.
The next day, the whole city was talking about a strange catastrophe. Some dark spot against the backdrop of rocks, one could see from many points of Dalnegorsk. A trained person could reach the summit in the summer in just half an hour, but in winter the snow cover discouraged such travel. So for three days, the townspeople looked at Hill 611 with curiosity through the eyepieces of their binoculars. The biologist Valery Viktorovich Dvuzhilny and his comrades were the first to decide to climb to the top. They established their priority without difficulty: there were no other human footprints in the snow near the summit.
It was not difficult to find the epicenter of the explosion: literally a few meters from the top of the hill, at an altitude of 600-609 meters, there was no snow at all, fragments of rock and melted fragments of “it is not clear what” lay scattered on the stones everywhere. And on the fragments of stones, and on the bare rock, and on the alleged fragments of the exploded body, obvious traces of melting and exposure to very high temperatures were visible.
It would seem that knowing the melting temperature of rocks, it was possible to calculate the temperature of the explosion. But not everything was so simple. The explosion, of course, was, pieces of rock were torn off the rock, but for some reason, as one would expect, they did not scatter over tens and hundreds of meters, but lay nearby, in several compact spots.
In one place, a strange “black grid” was found, which only after a long time was able to be identified as “a piece of wood that experienced high temperatures for several hours in the complete absence of oxygen”.
Where could “a few hours” come from if we are talking about the explosion? True, some eyewitnesses claimed that the glow at the top of the hill and even explosions of lesser power lasted about an hour. Some even saw that the luminous ball rose several times and fell again. However, no one could explain the “complete lack of oxygen”, because at the top of a mountain blown by all the winds, there is always an abundance of air. Only if someone or something covered the top of the hill with an unknown hermetic cap.
But even more researchers were surprised by other plants: many bushes and trees growing on the top did not feel the explosion at all. They were not hurt, although just a few centimeters away from them, an unknown force tore and melted the stones! At the same time, plant studies were carried out, as they say, at the highest level - Dvuzhilny was known in the USSR and abroad as a very talented biologist.
In the surveyed area, Dvuzhilny's group found a small area where there was no snow; debris rocks on it were covered with a black film, and the platform itself was covered with ashes. There were also the remains of a burnt tree, which turned into porous coals, not typical for a forest fire, metal drops, black vitreous particles, unusual scales in the form of a kind of mesh and metal grains, the origin of which is difficult to explain.
Strange materials
As the head of the Kosmopoisk society writes Vadim Chernobrov in his "Encyclopedia of Ufology", as a result of research conducted in 14 different research institutions Soviet Union, it turned out that these samples were of several basic types and various sizes.
1. A large number of melted balls with holes consisted of a lead alloy with rare transuranium elements: zirconium, lanthanum, yttrium, praseodymium, etc.
2. Iron alloy balls with chromium, nickel, manganese and aluminum.
3. Balls from an alloy of iron with tungsten and cobalt, having an amorphous structure.
4. Particles of molten carbon in a glassy state, which is formed at temperatures of at least 3500 ° C.
5. Magnetized silicon schists (previously it was believed that silicon could not be magnetized).
6. Black glassy formations with numerous holes, called "networks". These formations surprised the experts the most. Their samples, for example, did not dissolve in the strongest acids, burned without a trace in air at 900°C, but did not melt in vacuum even at 2800°C.
They did not conduct in the cold state electricity, but became conductors when heated in vacuum. After being immersed in liquid nitrogen, glass-like formations even began to demonstrate superconductivity. The "grids" included various rare earth metals, as well as the thinnest, only 17 microns thick, quartz filaments, single or folded into bundles.
In one of these threads, the finest golden hair was later found. It was found that the "nets" change their composition under the influence of external conditions. Thus, before heating, X-ray diffraction analysis showed the presence of gold, silver, and nickel in the samples. And after heating, these elements disappeared, but molybdenum and beryllium sulfide appeared.
Experts concluded that such a technology is impossible even with the current level of technological development. Doctor of Chemical Sciences V. Vysotsky confirms: - Without a doubt, this is a sign of high technology, and not a sample of natural or terrestrial origin.
At the same time, according to the conclusion of the staff of the Leningrad branch of the Institute terrestrial magnetism, ionosphere and radio wave propagation of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, where the analysis of the balls was carried out, the isotopic composition of lead indicates its terrestrial origin. Moreover, this composition is identical to the samples from the Holovensky deposit in the northern Baikal region.
If we take into account that the direction from this field to height 611 coincides with the flight path of the luminous ball, then there are even more questions. It is also curious to note that similar artifacts were also found in Altai, the Northern Urals and even near Moscow.
Russian Roswell
Measurements carried out for three years at the site of the fall of the UFO showed the preservation of the "field" of an anomalous nature. Animals avoided this place, and people there appeared changes in the composition of the blood, increased pulse and blood pressure, and there were violations of coordination when walking. In the future, flights of fireballs were also repeatedly observed at an altitude of 611. Already eight days after the mysterious catastrophe, four luminous objects were observed above the height of 611, which made four circles above it.
In November 1987, 32 UFO flights of cylindrical, cigar-shaped and spherical shapes were recorded over Eastern Primorye. Of this number, five UFOs fumbled with their rays in the area of \u200b\u200bheight 611, four flew over this hill, and three unidentified object hovered over Dalnegorsk.
The mystery of the events of 1986 has not yet been revealed. There are many hypotheses. Some talk about an unusual meteorite, others about a giant ball lightning, others about aliens. But there is a more paradoxical assumption: the object escaped to the surface of the Earth from its bowels as a result of volcanic activity and lightning discharges, and strange materials, in turn, are nothing more than the remains of inorganic life forms resting in the depths earth's crust.
At the same time, since the 1990s, Americans have been calling Dalnegorsk the Russian Roswell. Although it would be more correct to call Roswell a miserable imitation of Dalnegorsk - due to the fact that in the Russian case everything that happened was proved by documents, the authenticity of which no one disputes.
Residents of the city of Dalnegorsk in the Primorsky Territory still remember how on January 29, 1986, at 19:55, a reddish ball silently appeared in the sky. It rose and fell several times, then seemed to hit a hill, bounced off several times, like a children's ball, and then completely disappeared - it seemed to fall.
Of course, there were immediately many volunteers who rushed to look for traces of a mysterious flying object. Height 611, where he was to show up, soon became famous. Many expeditions were sent to these parts, but no remains of a meteorite, no crashed rocket or UFO were found, and the strange ball was forgotten. However, Elena Matveeva, a former senior researcher at the Central Research Geological and Exploration Institute of Non-Ferrous and Precious Metals, still keeps a tea box, which contains tiny balls and spirals from a long-standing seaside expedition, like the apple of her eye - these are artifacts that were found on the same hill. Matveeva suggests that they are of meteorite origin, but her hypothesis did not intrigue the scientific community then. Two years later - in 1988 - an employee of the Institute of Geology and Geophysics of the Siberian Branch of the USSR Academy of Sciences, Professor Viktor Skavinsky, during an expedition to these parts, using a proton magnetometer, recorded six points of magnetization of the field of siliceous slates. Eyewitness accounts were unexpectedly confirmed: the ball really "jumped" on the surface of the earth. We decided to comb the fall area again and found great amount strongly smoked fragments of silicon, as if cracked from high temperatures. They were splattered with tiny balls - tiny particles of silvery metal.
Carbon specialists from the Institute of Chemistry of the Far Eastern Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences found out that these balls are divided into at least several types. The first is a lead alloy weighing 60 grams of regular shape with holes leading inward. The second - iron 15-gram "droplets" only 2-4 millimeters in diameter. Some of them are covered on top with convex glass-like structures, the nature of which neither physicists nor metallurgists have been able to figure out. Their melting point is almost a hundred degrees lower than that of conventional alloys. It is also strange that all samples are magnetized, while exposure to high temperatures usually removes the magnetic properties of materials.
The third type, perhaps the most mysterious, is the "mesh". It is still not known for certain what it is. According to Elena Matveeva, under an electron microscope, quartz filaments 17 micrometers thick were found on the surface of the "mesh", which is three times thinner than a human hair. These threads are intertwined and twisted into a neat tourniquet. In one of the threads, the “golden section” was discovered - the thinnest strip of gold, which somehow miraculously ended up in the very center of the “mesh”. Later, gold veins were found in other samples.
"Grid" shows amazing properties, - says Matveeva. - Does not dissolve in strong acids, withstands temperatures up to three thousand degrees in a vacuum, and burns out in air at 900 degrees. In the normal state, it is a dielectric, with a slight heating - a semiconductor, when heated in a vacuum - a conductor. After lowering into liquid nitrogen, it exhibits supermagnetic properties. But the most fantastic is not even that. According to the researchers, in the "mesh" as if by wave magic wand new chemical elements, and the old ones disappear, which seems to be impossible at all. Before heating in vacuum, X-ray diffraction analysis showed gold, silver and nickel, and after heating they disappeared. Although according to the readings of the electron microscope, nothing melted or evaporated. But molybdenum, tungsten and beryllium sulfide appeared. The question is where from?
“It is very difficult to give an unambiguous assessment of this kind of finds,” says Elena Matveeva. - Although not only in Dalnegorsk, but also in the Northern Urals, Altai and even near Moscow, geologists discover similar artifacts. Strange finds have already become familiar. We can't figure out what it is." According to the researcher, it is almost impossible to assume the man-made origin of the artifacts. Under terrestrial conditions, it is unlikely that it will be possible to make such a thin thread, and then insert a mixture of metals with different melting points into it.
A version arose about the meteorite origin of strange balls: when entering the Earth's atmosphere at the fourth cosmic velocity, the low-melting substances of the meteorite evaporate and its surface is enriched with elements such as iridium, tungsten, and other metals often found in mysterious alloys. However, neither confirm nor refute this assumption failed. “Until now, not a single meteorite, either iron or stone, is known to contain finds of native tungsten,” such an answer came from the Committee on Meteorites of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
Meanwhile, many hypotheses of the origin of artifacts have been expressed. Often they contradicted each other. In the American authoritative magazine Sky & Telescope, a study was published that fragments of a secret US military spy satellite fell on height 611. An expert of the USSR Ministry of Defense, Colonel Alexander Plaksin, claimed that a car crashed into the hill. But experts from the Research Institute of Electric Welding. E. O. Paton and the Institute of Geochemistry and Physics of Minerals in Kyiv concluded that no traces of meteorite substance, namely taenite and kamacite, as well as Widmanstetten figures, were found in the samples. They also established that the power of the Dalnegorsk ball was equal to 10,000 megawatts - this is approximately two Krasnoyarsk hydroelectric power stations. For comparison: the power of the Proton launch vehicle is only about 50 megawatts. What was this object and how did it move?
Even the most fantastic versions are put forward, not without aliens. But there are more paradoxical assumptions: the object escaped to the surface of the earth from its bowels as a result of volcanic activity and lightning discharges, and strange materials, in turn, are nothing more than the remains of inorganic life forms resting in the depths of the earth's crust. This conclusion is made by the chief researcher of the Institute of General Physics. AM Prokhorova RAS Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences Vadim Tsytovich and his colleagues in Germany and Australia, who studied the behavior of complex mixtures of inorganic materials in the so-called dusty plasma. Until now, it was believed that plasma, due to the chaotic motion of ions and electrons, is incapable of self-organization. However, Vadim Tsytovich and his colleagues managed to create a computer model of molecular dynamics, which demonstrated the possibility of such self-organization. One possible form of inorganic material is double helixes held together by electrostatic attraction. It is this form that underlies the DNA molecule. It turned out that these inorganic double helixes behave in many ways similar to the molecules of heredity - they can unwind and form copies of themselves, interact with neighboring helices and evolve into more complex structures. Scientists believe that such spiral structures can occur in interstellar space, where there is cosmic dust, and the conditions are close to those laid down in the computer model. The same conditions can arise during lightning discharges and volcanic eruptions, which at the early stage of the Earth's development occurred constantly.
But what did they see over Dalnegorsk? Perhaps a huge ball lightning, suggests Vadim Tsytovich. This can explain the absence of fragments at the alleged place of the object's "fall", and the strong magnetization of the samples, and their complex spiral nature. “Inorganic double helixes in an environment saturated with organic matter could at one time serve as a kind of matrix for the formation of complex biomolecules with a similar topology,” the scientist says. That is, it is possible that such artifacts are our distant "relatives" that tell about the history of the origin of life.
