Object was seen on a clear day no clouds except for a hazy disturbance around the object at a distance of about 1 mile. object appeared to be approx 30 yards in diameter and about 200 feet in the air hovering motionless next to a self supporting tower that is about 300 feet tall and also over the inter- section of Manchester rd. and Laclede sta. rd. in Maplewood Mo. There is also a small power station under where the object was seen.

After about one and a half minutes object slid down on its side and slowly moved towards the west showing a different viewing angle which was like a cigar shape,then picked up speed and in about 4 seconds was gone.

The best discription i can give would be like an eightball without the 8 or like the BLACK SUN EMBLEM drawn by White Feather.
