- **0 h :** 5 hours after this explosion at the end of the world, Britain is dazzled by a sparkling sunset. The *Times* will report the event: the night is so clear that Londoners can read their newspaper in the street, at midnight, without resorting to the city lighting! A journalist thus describes this night of June 30th: The sky was as clear as in broad daylight and streaked with pink light clouds; in my life, I have never witnessed anything so amazing.

- **July 11**: The famous Russian explorer V. K. Arsenyev was walking
|
|
along the Gobilli River when he made this encounter: I saw a trace
|
|
on the path that looked like a human footprint. My dog Alpha
|
|
stopped, then growled, and suddenly something stirred close by,
|
|
dragging itself with a heavy step among the bushes. Yet this thing
|
|
did not flee, it stopped right next to us, invisible, perfectly
|
|
still. We stayed like this for several minutes... Then I bent down,
|
|
picked up a stone and threw it towards the bushes. Then something
|
|
unexpected happened: I heard a flapping of wings. Something big
|
|
and black emerged from the fog and flew over the river. An instant
|
|
later, this thing had disappeared into the thick mist. My dog,
|
|
completely terrified, huddled at my feet. After supper, I spoke of
|
|
this incident to the men and of the Udehe tribe. They launched
|
|
into a very animated story about a man who could fly in the air.
|
|
Hunters had often seen his traces that suddenly vanished, in such
|
|
a way that the only possible explanation was that "the man" had
|
|
landed on the ground before taking off again
