We shall refer to what other eyewitnesses have to tell: Oyvind Torp from Vesetrud in Asbygda, tells us that he was standing by the window at 5.30 pm. the same Tuesday and looked at the hillside. Suddenly he was aware of a bright and shining light which came flying at a tremendous speed from the south and disappeared northwards towards Jevnaker. The speed was so great that the whole phenomenon looked like a long, luminous tail. In a couple of seconds it was gone, but the whole hillside was illuminated! Another observation which may indicate that a UFO has been in the area Tuesday afternoon, the newspaper Ringerikes Blad writes on the October 28, and the newspaper postulates the following theory: The two 14-year old boys saw a UFO land by Alm school. The craft took off and proceeded southwards along the hillside. After some 10 minutes, one of the workers at the school did see a circular object which radiated a powerful light over the same area. It came from the north and went southwards. If it was the same UFO, it must have returned! Vesetrud is situated, say, 2 kilometers further south in Asbygda. Could it have been the same UFO that Oyvind Torp sighted on its way back to the place where it first had landed? Has the UFO been seen also from Vikersund Tuesday evening? Again it is Ringerikes Blad, dated November 1, which is asking the question, and tells about a flying object which almost "shaved" the roofs of the neighbours 50 yards away. It looked rather like an outdoor lamp in motion. The yellow, circular light seemed to be situated above Tyrifjorden (a large freshwater fjord), and it slid slowly and soundlessly in the direction from Ask towards Royse. Three witnesses were watching the light for about one minute, just after 6.30 pm. at Tuesday. It was just afterwards that an object was seen in the air from Odli at Honefoss. The witnesses didn't reflect on their observations until they saw the UFO-news in Ringerikes Blad. Also Wednesday October 26, the mysterious light was seen above Asbygda, tells Unni Gundhus to the newspaper. When she came driving from Honefoss in the direction of Hen, where there is an excellent view of Asbygda, she caught sight of an intense bright light which just stood there in the sky. The time was about 5.30 in the afternoon. Her obser-vation was done exactly 24 hours after the UFO-sighting at the Alm school. The newspaper Glamdalen writes on October 29: "UFO sighted at Grue and in the Oslo area": "It is a question whether the strange flying object that was seen on Ringerike, did not have its first landing here in Grue", tells Thorstein Nesseter. "My horse had run away, and I was out trying to catch it. When I returned homewards in the evening and was standing a couple of meters above Knapholsberget, I saw an oblong object hovering in the air 2 - 3 meters above the road. In one end it was shining red and in the other end it looked like a common light bulb that was shining. When I walked out on the road, not far from the object, it looked to me as being circular and shiny as the moon. Then I wasn't very far from it". The exact site of observation was Reidar Omstedsvei down to Agnas and further ahead via Knapholsberget. |
