Scientific paper

The three transient optical objects discovered by Schaefer (1981) on Harvard College Observatory plates are investigated within the framework of knowledge of distinct differences between real stellar images and typical plate defects. It is concluded that two of the three objects are plate defects, and that there are serious doubts about the reality of the third. It is found that the contention that gamma-ray bursts might be accompanied by optical flashes is still unproven.
