MEMO FOR THE DEPUTY DIRECTOR FOR SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL
RESEARCH
SUBJECT:
Sun Streak Operational Report - 8802 (U)
1.
(S/NF /SK)
During the period of 10 February 1988 through 30
March 1988 inclusively, four remote viewers conducted eight
sessions in an effort to determine the content, function, and
purpose of the target structure provided in
SG1C
SG1C
2.
(S/NF /SK)
Source 079 described the target as consisting of
long, tubular, light-colored, silver objects stored and assembled
in a round yet squared-off structure that resembled a research
laboratory with sterile atmosphere. See sketch at TAB A.
Doors
from the east wing of the structure give access to the objects;
the objects (TAB B) are located from the top of the circle of the
structure and down to about three quarters of the length of the
structure. The objects were identified as upgraded and updated
versions of the Soviet SS17 (and possibly SS-19)
Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBM's). The missiles are
currently located in the Middle East, specifically in the Peoples
Democratic Republic of Yemen (Yemen -Aden) where they are being
tested. Anticipated completion date for this project was
indicated as either November 1988 or November 1989.
The letters
"QRSTU" or "QRXTU" were related to this type of missile and the
name "Dommer" (phonetic) appeared related to the principal Soviet
technical, industrial supplier (of parts). The project
represents an upgrade of a Soviet nuclear missile system that
originated in the early 1970's.

Source 003 perceived the target area as comprised
of a group of structures with interspersed antenna dishes
resembling microwave antenna dishes. See sketch at TAB C.

target structure itself contained gleaming, chrome-appearing,
curving metal that was at once rounded and long.
The notions of
detailed, complex, micro-scale assembly of micro-segments
appeared dominant. Activities related to this structure involved
the practical application and functioning of prototype machine
and equipment operating in a horizontal position from a "test
bed" atmosphere. The viewer was reminded of complex device
requiring the precision and attention to detail normally reserved
for the detonation of a nuclear device.
Technicians have to
sometimes operate by feel rather than by sight within
requirements of "very tight tolerances. "
4. (S/NF/SK)
According to Source 018, the target area evoked
strong impressions of missile-like silhouettes and short, solid
structures in the distance. The main (target) structure
consisted of a dark room connected to other rooms with work
tables, desks, and work areas with rags and rods. The activity
at the target structure centered on a large group of long, round,
metallic things of a dull, greenish color and appeared concerned
to the concept of "adding to" rather than initiating (something
new). While viewing the site and attempting to determine the
nature of its activity, Source 018 experienced a strong and
repeated experience that he associated with the odor of "light
oil used in the direction-sensing potentiometer of the old Nike
Ajax and Nike Hercules (guided missile systems) " firing, control
computers. Viewer 018 noted that firing control computers used
variable potentiometers in lieu of digital components.
5. (S/NF/SK)
According to Source 011, the target is a long,
rectangular structure with which vertical movement is associated.
See sketch at TAB D. The notion of a rocket, a space object, re -.
entry vehicle and a flame-like blast is associated with the
structure. The incongruous presence of glowing green balls
branching out in an arc and causing an irregular star-like
pattern appeared to be the end result of this technical R&D
effort.
