UFO over Salina Kansas seen by pilots

Summary

In November 1957, Air Force pilots observed an oval-shaped object, the size of a grapefruit, glowing like a fluorescent light. The phenomenon started with a single object that split into four, suddenly disappearing after 15 seconds. Although a meteor was considered, reports suggest it could have been jet exhaust at high altitude. The clear sky and duration of the sighting support this theory.
