Late at night, a giant light spot about one kilometer in diameter suddenly appeared on the radar screen, hovering at high altitude for several minutes. The station immediately dispatched a reconnaissance aircraft for visual observation; nothing abnormal was seen. On the return flight, the radar image had also vanished.
