MUFON Case # 32350
Date:    2011-10-04
Time:   20:15
Status:    Assigned
City:    Independence
State:    Missouri
Shape:    Boomerang,Oval,Triangle
Distance: 500 feet or less
Summary: UFO flying over busy I-70 interstate for a long time.

Report:
Driving along I-70EB in Independence,Missouri, headed home after a quick run to the store, my husband and I, with our two kids in the backseat all saw strange lights headed towards us over the highway. The closer we got, we realized the object was just hovering very low over the cars moving extremely slow. There were hundreds of huge, extremely bright lights completely covering the front of the craft. These lights were almost blinding, and resembled stadium lights. We pulled over to try and take pictures with my phone, only two came out somewhat okay. Traffic was slowing and two ramps next to us were shut down due to a wreck we believe. Many were in the area and had to of seen it along side us. As we were trying to take pictures out of the window, the craft was over our car and began to turn south, no sound whatsoever was coming from it, dead silence other than the passing cars on the highway. The underneath and back of the craft didn't have as many lights as the front head on. It was gigantic,the front seemed rounded then boomerang or arc shaped as it turned(Not sure if it changed shape, but for sure two different shapes compared with head on to the back side of it) it took off a little bit faster, but still at fairly low speed(compared with airliners or even stealth bombers which would both be very loud, this again, was silent) After it turned away, my husband thought it broke into three separate pieces, I thought it was just so big, it expanded and the three brightest lights appeared to be separate. We tried to follow the path, but with traffic backed up, we eventually lost sight after a 45 minute drive. Definitely not something either of us have seen, tried to stay calm not to frighten our two little ones in the back. Would love an explanation.

Summary:  CRAZIEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN, THIS IS REAL!!

Report:
THIS IS NUTS, I SAW A UFO WHEN I WAS 14 W/MY MOM A LONG TIME AGO IN THE DISTANCE BUT TONIGHT WAS NOTHING LIKE THAT. THIS WAS THE CRAZIEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN, I WAS SOO CLOSE TO IT, I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. I WAS DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE I-70 WESTBOUND CAME UP TO THE 291HWY INTERSECTION THAT WAS BACKED UP DUE TO AN ACCIDENT ON 291HWY SOUTH. I LOOK UP AND SAW THIS HUGE GIANT OBJECT BEAMING WITH WHITE BRIGHT WHITE LIGHTS ALL OVER IT HOVERING IN MIDAIR RIGHT ABOVE THE I-70 AND 291HWY INTERSECTION. IT WAS HOVERING ABOUT 500FT. ABOVE THE HIGHWAY, I PULLED THE CAR OVER AND WATCHED IT JUST HOVERING. I ROLLED THE WINDOWS DOWN TO HEAR IT BUT NO NOISE WHATSOEVER CAME FROM IT. TOTAL SILENCE JUST THE CARS PASSING BY. I WAS FREAKING OUT AND YELLING I COULD NOT BELIEVE MY EYES WHAT I WAS SEEING. MY FAMILY WAS WITH ME AND WE WERE ALL FREAKING OUT. WITHIN ABOUT 2-3MIN OF HOVERING IT TURNED SOUTH AND STARTED AT A STRAIGHT PATH GOING SOUTH, I TRIED TO TAKE PICS BUT MY CAMERA ON MY PHONE COULDN'T PICK IT UP ENOUGH. I SAW THE REAR OF THE CRAFT AND IT WAS HUGE. THE BACK HAD 3 SEPARATE BOX SHAPED GLOWING LIGHTS THAT LOOKED AS THOUGH THEY WERE SPREADING APART. IT HEADED ALONG 291HWY SOUTH BUT WAS MORE FLYING OVER THE CLIFFS HOMES AREA DIRECTION. 291HWY SOUTH WAS CLOSED OFF BY POLICE DUE TO THE WRECK SO I COULDN'T FOLLOW IT BUT I DID HEAD DOWN 40HWY WEST OFF OF 291HWY AND THEN WENT SOUTH ON LEES SUMMIT RD BUT DID NOT SEE IT DUE TO SOO MUCH TRAFFIC BACKUP AND TREES. THE SHAPE WAS LIKE A SMALL PYRAMID, DOME ONTOP BUT COVERED IN BRIGHT WHITE LIGHTS, LOTS OF THEM, THEN AS IT TURNED I SAW THE BOTTOM OF IT AND THE SIDE. THE BOTTOM VIEW WAS A V SHAPE WITH A FEW LIGHTS ALSO HAD BLINKING BLUE LIGHTS NEAR THE BOTTOM OF THE CRAFT. BUT THE BOTTOM VIEW WAS TOTAL V SHAPE NO DOUBT ABOUT IT. THEN AS I SAW IT FROM THE REAR, I COULD ONLY SEE 3 BRIGHT WHITE SQUARE SHAPES IN A ROW BUT NOT STRAIGHT IN A ROW, ALL 3 REAR SQUARE LIGHTS WERE IN DIFFERENT ANGLES. THIS HAS CHANGED MY LIFE GOING FORWARD. I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS NOR HAVE BEEN AS CLOSE TO ONE. I MEAN THIS THING WAS HOVERING RIGHT OUTSIDE THE CAR WINDOW ABOVE ME AT A 45DEGREE ANGLE IN FRONT OF ME. JUST PURE CRAZY.... AMAZING! I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD SEE ONE AGAIN IN MY LIFE. THE PIC I HAVE ATTACHED WAS TAKEN WITH MY CELL PHONE BUT FOR SOME REASON I DONT KNOW WHY DOES NOT LOOK LIKE WHAT I SAW. BUT I FIGURED I MIGHT WAS WELL ATTACH IT. BETTER THAN NOTHING.

MUFON Case # 32353
Date:    2011-10-04
Time:   20:30
Status:    Assigned
City:    Raytown
State:    Missouri
Shape:    Other
Duration: 00:05:00
Distance: 100 feet or less
Summary:  The UFO hovered then flew away.   

Report:
I was on Raytown Road and 63rd Street sitting at a red light. I was heading to a friend's house. I noticed the object because a lady in the car next to me had out a video camera and was pointing it at the sky. When I first saw the object I knew it was a UFO because I have never seen anything like that before. I am familiar with commercial airplanes and military airplanes and this was neither. The object was hovering over the Raytown Water Tower. It hovered for five seconds from when I first saw it, then it rose up ten feet flipped over and slowly flew down Raytown Road toward the west. I chased after it and all of a sudden it emitted a black contrail and increased speed dramatically and disappeared. I thought it was the craziest thing I have ever seen and didn't think anyone would believe me. A friend of my sister posted on facebook that her son had spotted a UFO in the Lee's Summit Mo area. After I spotted the UFO I called KMBC news and they reported four or five spottings of the same aircraft.

MUFON Case # 32357
Date:    2011-10-04
Status:    Submitted
City:    Kansas City
State:    Missouri
Shape:    Boomerang,Sphere,Triangle
Distance: Unknown
Summary: Undescribable UFO KANSAS CITY 8/4/11

Report:
My friend and I were heading to downtown kansas city on 435 N, near the I70 exit I noticed what looked like a very bright 3 lights that were blinking (first thought was that it was an airplane) until we got closer and the object was floating in the sky about 200 feet or less above. The lights now appeared to have different colors and there were about 7 of them in a triangular shape that somewhat looked circular. The objest was HUGE and just hovering above on the right side of the highway. It felt as if the object was so close that you could touch it. We drove under it and as we were passing it, it appeared to almost split apart (the lights were about 10ft apart from eachother and then they became like 30ft apart and it started to slowly move further north going along I70 but with loads of smoke coming from it.) We watched and seen helicoptors in the sky. At first we wondered if it could of been helicotors flying but the object was silent as for the helicoptor we saw earlier you could hear perfectly. As we were driving severeal cars on the highway were slowing down dramatically as it flew over. Please PLEASE Please if anyone knows anything about this please please post something! I am not a believe in UFO's nor Aliens and after seeing this I am in utter awe!
