Circular UFO in Missouri 1953

Summary

In April 1953, a civilian in East Prairie, Missouri, observed seven unidentified aerial objects for 25 minutes. The objects appeared in the trail of a B-36 and were described as perfect circles, silver, and about 230 feet in diameter. Despite their size, they emitted no noise or exhaust and reached speeds of 400 to 600 mph during maneuvers and over 600 mph in level flight. The witness, along with his wife and three others, documented details such as the absence of wings, visible engines, or any conventional features. One object remained stationary for 10 minutes, while others emitted alternating flashes not resembling Morse code. The Air Force concluded the objects were conventional aircraft, but no clear evidence supported this.
