In 1946, over 2,000 reports of unidentified missile-shaped objects over the Scandinavian nations flooded in. They were later dubbed "ghost rockets," but what were they initially called?

As countless reports were collected by the Swedish military of unidentified aerial phenomena, people began referring to them as "Russian Hail" based on the idea that the objects were Russian tests of captured German V1 or V2 rockets. However, Swedish authorities confirmed with USAF Europe that some of their team believed the missile-shaped objects to be extraterrestrial in origin.
