“Faster than a Meteor”: Missouri Man Describes Weird Sighting

How many times have you seen something in the sky that you thought was an aircraft, but then it started moving strangely? That just happened to a Missouri man who lives in the middle of nowhere who thought what he thought as a plane, but then it started moving much too fast to be a known aircraft.

According to the National UFO Reporting Center, a man near Lenox, Missouri witnessed something strange the night of October 19, 2025

According to his eyewitness testimony that was shared on the NUFORC site, it was around 7pm the night of October 19, 2025 when he saw what he thought was an aircraft traveling north, but when he saw how fast it was, he knew this was not a plane since it was "beyond comprehension faster than a meteor". It also wasn't a meteor since he saw it change direction. He saw the object dim and then head back south. He said that whatever it was made no sound and traveled all the way across the sky overhead in only a few seconds.

If you're familiar with Lenox, Missouri, you know it's in the middle of a heavily-wooded remote area in the south-central part of the state. It's not that far from Fort Leonard Wood, but not near any major cities or airports. Even if he was close to a metro area, there's no known aircraft that can travel as fast as he described with sudden changes of direction. By definition, he saw a UFO over Missouri. What it was remains anyone's guess.
