A description of the experience
As quoted in Wonders In The Sky - Unexplained Aerial Objects From Antiquity To Modern Times - and Their Impact on Human Culture, History, and Beliefs - Jacques Vallee and Chris Aubeck
At the second hour of the night, men walking in the main square of Forli saw an enormous "asub" (celestial object) fly over very slowly. Duration: "the time of two Paternosters." It left a smell like burning wood. Some witnesses described it as motionless in the sky for a while.
