There was a strong wind from the southwest all evening. The temperature was +4°C.
We arrived at Våhuskølen at 07:35 pm and at 07:37 pm an oblong illuminated object
moved slowly in a northerly direction. There was a flashing red
light ahead. Very uneven path, with swaying movements that can be compared to a sheet of ash with a glow
being carried by the wind. It passed almost directly over where we were standing. It was so close
to us that we could hear a kind of hissing sound from it. The sound can be compared to
the sound of high-voltage cables in humid weather.
At 07:55 pm a luminous object passed in a northerly direction over Finnsåhøgda. The object could have been an
plane but there was no sound and it was too brightly lit for our plane.
We travelled up to Finnsåhøgda south and arrived there at 09:20 pm. Returned at 09:49 pm. No observation apart from
flashes and lightning-fast rays of light that went vertically down towards the mountain peaks in the south-southwest.
Similar flashes have been seen several times before.

We were driving by Heggset in Hessdalen and observed an oblong object that looked almost like a loaf of bread. Its length was four times its height, and about 20 to 30 meters long.
On the front part there was something that looked like a glass dome or something made of glass.
The color otherwise was steely metallic, and it looked like a large steel box.
The object disappeared behind the forest in the direction of Båttjønndalen, where two others saw the same thing through binoculars.
It passed slowly without a sound.
The witnesses have not seen UFOs before and they thought that a mirror image could be a possible cause.

Because we had observed UFOs at Rognefjellet the last two days and had also observed them there several
times before, we decided to try to get close to them to get the long-awaited super pictures. We therefore
climbed up Rognefjellet today and from there we could get a nice panoramic view of the mountainous plateau b
elow. The distance to the mines was then only 1 km. We sat down and waited, and darkness came steadily,
the lenses misted up and frost formed on all the equipment. No UFOs came. However, there were two strong
flashes of light from the other side of
Hessdalen, where we had been sitting the evening before.
The flashes came from behind Finnsåhøgda.

Arne and Tone climbed up Fjellbekkøgda a little earlier this evening than the evening before.
They brought a SLR camera with a lens with a focal length of 1000mm and a narrow-format film camera, and were well dressed.
At 05:40 pm they saw an object standing still over two small abandoned mines on the mountain plateau to the east,
over the southern part of Rognefjell. Arne measured the direction to 89° from where they were standing. Arne took lots of pictures.
The object stood still for a long time. After a while the UFO moved on and was joined by another one so that we both got a number of pictures and slr film.
They tried to send some flashes of light towards them with a 50W halogen lamp (1000m auxiliary high beam with battery).
By the time Arne started flashing one had gone out or disappeared and soon after the other also disappeared.
At 18:05 they returned and they took some final photos before they went down the mountain and drove home to the cabin they had rented.
t 08:20 pm, while they were loading the equipment into the seater, an elongated object came flying slowly, low
and silently while flashing red lights along the edge in an ambulatory manner.
Arne listened and listened for a flight recorder, but it never came. It was completely silent.
I was able to take two pictures with a camera with a 400mm lens. Tone believes that the object was cigar-shaped.

It suddenly disappeared.
At 09:17 pm an object came heading south. It went east of Finnsåhøgda.
It had a steady trajectory and speed. The object disappeared behind a cloud, but reappeared.
It was clear, fine weather, quiet and cold. A strong gust of wind (?) was heard between these
two observations.
Checked with Værnes Airport: No planes were supposed to be there then.
Hummelfjell and Gråkallen radar stations: No observations on radar.

This morning it was clear weather with some snow on the ground.
At 7:40, bus driver Dagfinn Brattås bus was driving
from Aring;len to Hessdalen. He was driving slowly at the top of Hessdalskjãlen due to ice on the road. Dagfinn saw a bright, reflective object by the TV mast.
He stopped the bus and got out. He then saw that the object was cigar-shaped, grayish metallic, possibly reflecting the sun.
The object had the 2nd and 3rd quarters of its length illuminated by a red light.
The object was seen with the sky as a background, and it possibly passed slightly above, or at,
the height of Finnsåhøgda (1069 meters).
The size is estimated to be about the size of an airliner. Dagfinn has never seen a UFO before.

Observer: Einar Engebretsen
(Report written 26 October 1982.)
Friday 8 October at 23:20 on the way up towards Aspåskjølen Engebretsen
suddenly spotted a luminous object in the sky to the north-northwest. It was shaped like a flat-topped sphere and was about the size of the moon. Engebretsen stopped the car and got out. The light intensity increased and it was painful to look at.
Suddenly the object plummeted down behind the treetops to emerge in a completely different place.
The spectacle stretched across the sky. In large zig-zag movements it could fly away,
or it fell dowdy towards the horizon to plummet back and forth.
During the movements, the object shone intensely white, much brighter than airplane lights.
It sometimes moved so fast that the object remained suspended in the air. During the display,
the object kept stopping and the brightness seemed to cool or sink in the inner core of the sphere.
The luminous ring, corona around the sphere, illuminated the inner part of it in a way that
reminded of faintly glowing metal. Engebretsen could clearly see the shape of the object.
Before each movement the object increased sharply in brightness, which persisted until the next stop
where the brightness decreased again. The object operated in a limited area. Total observation time was approx. 4 minutes.
When it seemed that the object had disappeared behind the horizon for good, Engebretsen
drove up to Aspås in the knowledge that the observers there had observed the object.
But the result was negative. However, several people in the village had observed the phenomenon (ref. Lars Lillevold).
The weather was partly cloudy, light wind. Later in the evening there was some hail and snow.
If the object had operated north of the observatories at Aspås, they should have seen it too.
It is understandable that the object was behind the observatories, and closer to Engebretsen
than he thought. He felt nauseous after the incident. Recently he has been troubled by headaches that keep coming and going. Whether this is related to the observation is impossible to know.
After the incident, Engebretsen has had a strange dream that repeats itself almost every night.
But, as he himself says; it is just a dream, it can't have anything to do with my observation, can it?
Engebretsen has seen UFOs before too.

This observation was seen some minutes before 11:00 pm. The weather was calm, clear or partly cloudy,
but with fog in the forest belt and up in the mountains. Location: The road from Killingdal mines, the road junction at Holte,
Norol station (petrol) and by the public library in Ålen.
Bjarne Lillevold and I came from the afternoon shift at the mine. Down the road we saw a luminous object in the sky.
At the crossroads in Holte I stopped the car and we got out. There we saw an object in a westerly direction
between the fir trees, but in front of the fog. The object disappears and reappears many times until finally
disappears completely.
We drive on and see the object again from time to time from the road, a short stop at the Norol station.
At the public library in Ålen I stop the car, turn off the lights and engine and get out
and follow the object with my eyes until it stops in the northern sky.
Then a new object comes at a roughly right angle to the first and somewhat lower it crosses the course
of the first and disappears into the forest and fog over Grytbak.
Both objects were silent and about the size of 1 to 2 "large" stars,
the last one a little larger.
We drive on and see the object again from time to time from the road, a short stop at the Norol station.
At the public library in Ålen I stop the car, turn off the lights and engine and get out

Bjarne Lillevold followed me to Barnbram (?), where he picked up his moped to drive
home to Vårhus in Hessdalen. I drove on alone, about 2 km up Hessdalslia
to drive the first gundavegen (?) to the right and home.

On our way home from work in Killingdal Gruver, we (2) saw a luminous object towards Hessdalsfjella.
It was a cloudy spring. We followed the national road down to Stensli, and when we had driven about
five kilometers, we saw that the object began to descend towards the spruce forest.
My friend who was in the car had never seen the so-called UFO before, and was quite excited about
what they could see. We drove quickly down to the center of the village, and then an object came from Hessdalen,
and stood below the other which stood completely still right above the center of Ålen.
I took my moped and drove downhill towards Hessdalen. When I got up to Hessdalskjølen, I saw that one of the objects was standing by a cabin there.
At first I thought the cabin was on fire, but I soon saw something else.
It looked like a Christmas tree, with the top down, and the object was larger than the cabin next to it.
In front of the object there was a large red light flashing, and it stood about four meters
above the ground, and there was an irregular coating around the entire object.
The light from it was so intense that I couldn't look at it for long.
It went up and down like a yo-yo and every time it came down towards the field it seemed to disappear, or become transparent.
I then saw a spruce through it. On the flat top of the object it seemed to be
a layer of sheep's wool, and it seemed to be warm there. If I had been with someone,
then maybe I would have gone up to the object, but I didn't dare when I was alone.

It was flat below with a ball on top.

Date: xx.01.1982 Time: 07:30 pm - 08 pm Place: Hessdalskjølen, Hessdalen
Observer: Johannes Lyngstad
This evening it was quiet and starry. The temperature was approx. -10°C. Location: The road at Hessdalskjølen,
80 - 100 m from the radio/TV transmitter towards Kjøfsrød's cabin.
I was walking uphill towards Hessdalskjølen. Then a luminous object came sailing across the sky.
It was completely silent, and the speed was quite moderate, as I stood for a few minutes before it disappeared
behind the forest north of the cabin mentioned. I would estimate the direction to be north-northwest.
The object seemed contourless, it was more like a powerful light of the size of
7 to 8 "big" stars combined. I dare not indicate how far I was from the
object, as I only saw it towards the sky, and therefore not towards any fixed point, but
it went across and a little to the left of me.
When I later arrived at Aspåsjordet and met people there, they could confirm that at
the time in question they had seen it in the same direction but towards the main valley.
This means that
it had passed between Aspåsjordet and where I was standing down on Hessdalsvegen.

Date: xx.01.1982 (Tuesday) Time: 11:20 pm Place: Finnsåh&oslah;gda, Hessdalen
Observers: Martin Aspås and Eldbjørg Aspås
Among the many observations I have seen in the last few years, I will only mention a few.
The first was a Tuesday evening in early January 1982. It was 11:20 PM when Eldbjørg and I
saw a lit square in the field in Finnsåhøgden. North west of Morkavollene.
The light stood completely still. We watched it for about 10 minutes in -32 °C. We saw this from a car. The light was there
when we drove on.
Ref. Martin Aspås.
Date: 29.01.1982 Time: morning Place: Aspås, Hessdalen
Observer: Jon Aspås
This morning we saw it heading south over Finnsåhøgda and towards
Vårhus. It came in the same orbit as in the previous morning observations.
There was a metallic silvery sheen to it.
It shone as it came up in the sun, as if reflecting it.
It was too far away to see any details.
Ref. Jon Aspås.
Date: 18.01.1982 Time: xx Place: Aspås, Hessdalen
Observer: Lars Lillevold
The object was observed randomly behind a telephone pole near his home. It was oval in shape and slowly passed his home. Before it slowly "glided" down the valley,
turned slightly to the left before disappearing down the valley.
Lars says he has seen satellites, comets and shooting stars. Can't compare to this.

Dates: 18.01.1982 and 20.01.1982 (and later) Time: xx Place: Aspås, Hessdalen
Observers: Jon Aspås and more
(Ref report from 12.01)
On 18.01 and 20.01 we also saw the same phenomenon, before there was a period where there were
fewer observations. But every time there was clear weather there was usually something of the phenomenon,
in all types of weather. We also saw the phenomenon when it was several degrees warmer than when it was
23 degrees below zero. My wife and the neighbor saw it in almost 30 degrees below zero towards the mountains there.
Ref. Jon Aspås.
Dates: 12.01.1982 and 13.01.1982 Time: xx Place: Aspås, Hessdalen
Observers: Jon Aspås
Then I didn't see anything until 12.1.82 and 13. (Ref report from 06.01)
It was the same phenomenon that went up and down over the mountains.
Ref. Jon Aspås.
Dates: 08.01.1982 Time: xx Place: mount Finnsåhøgda, Hessdalen
Observers: Jon Aspås
The next evening (08.01) we were up on the hill and saw the phenomenon again.
That same evening someone at Morken had seen it at 04:30 pm towards Finnsåhøgda.
Then it was like a big moon passing over the sea, with the mountain in the background.
Ref. Jon Aspås.
Dates: 07.01.1982 Time: xx Place: mount Finnsåhøgda, Hessdalen
Observers: Jon Aspås
The first time I saw the second phenomenon was on 7.1.82, and it was -23°C and snowing.
But I saw a light coming from Båttjønndalen and towards Finnsåhøgda,
but it stopped and stood for about 5 minutes over Finnsådalen, before it passed northwards
Finnsåhøgda and went down on the back, before it came up again and went down again.
Ref. Jon Aspås.
Dates: From 06.01.1982 to 17.01.1982 Time: xx Place: Aspås, Hessdalen
Observers: Jon Aspås and several
Jon Aspås have had daylight observations in both 1942-43 and 1967.
The first observation was made on January 6, 1982. Several observations of the same nature have been made later, the last
on January 17, 1982. (This report was written on January 24, 1982)
Red / yellow light, sometimes coming from the south and sometimes from the north. The "lights"
were not seen at the same height, and a known object such as a star / planet is ruled out. Witnesses who went into Ledal believed to have observed four (4) "lights" (objects). Jon Aspås did not witness this.
He estimates that approximately 30 witnesses in total may have seen the objects.
Thought that the "light" landed near a cottage, and people with snowmobiles checked the place without finding any traces.
Jon Aspås observed the "lights" in front of the mountains, and that it passed behind the mountain ridge. Jon suggested that
"the "light" was more radiant than an evening with strong northern lights.
The previously mentioned "windows" was a journalistic figure of speech. Jon compared the size of
one of the lights, as he saw the windows of his house at a distance of about 200 m. Without elaborating,
he stated that the "lights" had windows. This is probably due to a misunderstanding.
He believed that the lights were round, but suggested that others had seen lights that were not quite round, but rather slightly oblong.
Ref. Jon Aspås.
Date: 05.01.1982 Time: 04:30 pm Place: Finnsåhøgda, Hessdalen
Observers: Anders Morken og hans kone
This is what my wife and I saw on January 5, 1982, at 4:30 PM - 5:00 PM.
We were on a trip to Hessdalen. It was cold, clear weather, moonlight and about -25 °C.
When we got to Hessdalskjølen, we saw a luminous object towards Finnsåhøgda, heading south.
Sometimes it stood still, and it went up and down.
Finally it rounded Finnsåhøgda and disappeared after about 5 minutes.
It was round with several colors, and half the size of the moon.
