UFO ends up being boring old army parachute team instead of aliens

Kansas City’s summer of strange lights in the sky continued last weekend, when multiple people shot video of what looked like a fireball falling toward Earth before splitting into a bunch of tiny fireballs. It was only the latest part of a trend in 2011 that has been keeping the city’s UFO believers’ necks craned.

Well, this sighting is easily explained, the Star reports. It was the Army’s Golden Knights parachuting team participating in the Kansas City Air Show. (Schedule showing their KC dates) Oh, well. I guess we can still wonder about this.
