Witnesses in Indiana and Illinois are reporting a cylinder-shaped UFO in the daytime skies in separate cases, according to June 29, 2011, testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
Two witnesses standing in a Kokomo, IN, parking lot reported watching "a large, dull silver/gray cylinder flying at high altitude from east to west high in the sky" on a nearly cloudless day in MUFON Case # 29773.
"No wings, no tail, no contrail," the reporting witness stated. "A large cylinder, at least twice the size of a large jetliner, with rounded ends versus pointy nose and tail. Estimated altitude 30,000 feet. There was no sound, but from that altitude and distance, not surprising. We watched as the cylinder crossed the sky over Kokomo slightly to our north from east to west - a total of maybe two minutes - last seen heading over Burlington due west of Kokomo."
In Illinois, two witnesses heading north on I-57 at the "Chebanse 302 exit ramp" parked their car to get a better look at the object in MUFON Case # 29775, described as a "cylinder moving straight up at high altitude with a white fan smoke tail."
"It was climbing higher moving straight up, maybe curving a little tiny bit east," the reporting witness stated. "We ruled out a jet due to the odd looking shape. Also, I have never seen a smoke trail look like that. The smoke trail was rather short, but fanned out, was quite amazing. At first we thought we were looking at the asteroid. After watching it and realizing it was moving up, and its maneuvers led me to the conclusion it was indeed a UFO."
