In the summer of 1946, residents of Sweden and Finland began reporting strange objects in the sky. They were described as rocket, or missile-like, fast-moving, sometimes glowing, and often silent. Many appeared to plunge into lakes without exploding, and strangely, without wreckage. The Swedish press soon gave them a name: spökraketer, or ghost rockets.
