Background

At 2:20 a.m. on May 24, 1946, witnesses in Landskrona, Sweden, observed a wingless, cigar-shaped object. Sparks were spurting from its tail. The object was about 300 feet above the ground and moved toward the southwest at roughly the speed of an airplane. Loren E. Gross and Göran Jansson list the report among the Swedish ghost rocket sightings of 1946. The account follows the entry in George M. Eberhart's chronology UFOs and Intelligence (CUFOS) and the sources cited there; it is not an independent determination by From Beyond Space.
