KC Skywatchers Keep Track of UFOs

By NADIA PFLAUM

For years, locals have been reporting paranormal sightings to the database at the Mutual UFO Network. MUFON’s Web site lets viewers look up reports by county. Here are some highlights from Missouri and Kansas:

Suburban Kansas City, May 10, 2008:

“My wife and I were sitting in our driveway during a neighborhood garage sale. My wife noticed the object when it was almost overhead. She thought it was a child’s balloon going over, then she wanted me to look because it looked strange. To me it looked much like a large weather balloon. Its altitude seemed very high because it had a blue haze like something you see in the distance. It moved from the north to the south in a straight pattern. It was not an airplane and moved too fast for a high altitude balloon… My wife who does not really believe in such things as UFOs seemed concerned over what it was.”
