It seems like there's a crescendo of strange sky sights over Missouri lately. You can add yet another to the growing list as a Missouri man swears he saw multiple orange orbs do a dance above him easily traveling more than 250 mph.

The National UFO Reporting Center says this close encounter of the Missouri kind happened over Stockton the night of October 20, 2025

According to his report submitted to the NUFORC site, a Missouri dude saw strange things happening above him near Stockton, Missouri around 10:15pm on October 20, 2025. Here is what he said he saw:

"While overlooking a large field with trees far off in the distance multiple orange orbs appeared in the sky above the tree line they faded in got very bright and then would vanish in thin air like they faded out. This happened multiple times over the course of about 20 minutes. Sometimes it was one at a time sometimes it was multiple orbs at the same time that would dance around each other in unnatural patterns."

His strange UFO encounter then became even more bizarre

He goes on to say that there were 7 orbs that appeared near the end of his sighting with 3 of them in a triangle formation while "the others playfully danced around the brighter 3". After that happened, they each disappeared one by one. How odd. He estimates that he was within a half mile of the objects and he also added that animals near him seem to be reacting, too.

What did he see?

Stockton, Missouri isn't that far from Whiteman Air Force Base, but what he described doesn't sound like any known flying object I'm aware of. It's situated about an hour to the northwest of Springfield and an hour and a half south of Whiteman. By definition, he saw unidentified flying objects. What they really were are anyone's guess.
