Project 10073 Record — Kansas City, Missouri, 18 March 1967

This document contains a collection of records related to a UFO sighting reported on March 18, 1967, in Kansas City, Missouri. The primary report consists of a U.S. Air Force technical information questionnaire completed by two witnesses, a 23-year-old male and a 20-year-old female, both of whom were in a car at the time of the incident. The witnesses observed an object approximately three miles south of Highway 58 on Homes Road. They described the object as having a round shape with a smaller dome-like top, roughly the size of an army tank. The object featured a complex lighting configuration, including two white spotlights on top, a row of red lights, and two rows of green lights. The witnesses reported that the object appeared to land in some trees and had no distinct sound. The observation lasted approximately three minutes. The Air Force conducted an initial assessment, concluding that the object was a 'Possible (AIRCRAFT).' A follow-up communication from the Foreign Technology Division (FTD) to the witnesses, dated March 6, 1967, indicated that the initial information provided was insufficient for a scientific evaluation and requested the completion of FTD Form 164. The file also includes an internal Air Force message (AF IN 15817) summarizing the incident for various agencies, including the University of Colorado, which was conducting UFO research at the time. The message confirms the details provided by the witnesses and notes that no physical evidence or radar contact was associated with the event.
