NUFORC Sighting 36569

Occurred: 1994-04-10 18:30 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2004-04-27 12:52 Pacific
Duration: 20 to 30 min
No of observers: 5

Location: Willow Springs, MO, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object, Changed Colo

Huge Triangular Object after dusk seen with lights outling the perimeter, and a bright light in the middle .

Was on that evening after dusk, sitting on our deck overlooking our 27 acre lake, when my wife and I observed a huge triangular object coming from the area of the city of Willow Springs approximately paralleling the area of County Road DD and heading behind Kings Mountain. It was traveling very slowely. When it passed Kings Mountain, and was in the neighborhood of the Kings Mountain Ranch, it suddenly headed in a east northerly direction towards Sims Lake and disappeared (like a bat out of hell over the horizon). We called up a TV Station in Springfield, and they said that it had been reported that a Russian Space craft had come down, and that was what the people were seeing, because of the many telephone calls. In the next two days we talked to our neighbors, in the first person is what they described: ( Will be described on space in a following continued report!)

((CONTINUATION FROM SAME WITNESS))

This is the continued portion of my previous report! Please correct date from 10/04/1994 to approximate date of 04/10/1994! In the first person from our neighbor, who is a Physicist and PE, quoting: " My wife, son, and I were traveling along DD Hwy from Willow Springs when we saw a hugh dark triangular craft approaching the airport landing strip, then it suddingly made a right hand turn and flew parallel to DD in the direction of Kings Mountain. It had lights all around outlining it, which from time to time changed color from blue white to red. It moved slowely at first around 20 mph. It was just above the trees, and its size was estimated to be 3 to 5 times the size of the B2 Bomber! At one time while I was driving, our son saw a huge blurry red light in the middle of the underside of the craft. Sometimes the craft seemed to have a halo, or force field around it. When it almost reached Kings Mountain Ranch, it suddingly crossed the road, flew over the ranch, and disappeared into the direction of Sims Lake/Whiteman AFB! Like said, it flew like a "bat out of hell" suddingly over the horizon and dissappeared!" The object was also seen by another witness! While some attended the Tri-Lakes-UFO Convention last November 2003 in Kimberling City, one of the vendors at the conference who sold UFO related books, also admitted that he had seen the same object at about the same time, when he was living in the area between Sims Lake in line with Whiteman AFB. - Therefore there were at least 6 witnesses to the craft who were qualified observers, and can state that it was not a Russian Satellite or similar object, that the TV Stations were aluding to. Probably what they were told to say! Another Gov't Coverup?
