On August 21, 1955, one of the most unusual events in early UFO history took place near the small town of Kelly outside Hopkinsville, Kentucky.

Although Project Blue Book never officially investigated the case, what became known as the Hopkinsville-Kelly UFO Encounter eventually drew attention from UFO investigators like J. Allen Hynek. But what did Kelly residents really see that evening in 1955? This week, we weigh the opinions and go in search of possible answers about one of history’s strangest UFO cases on The Micah Hanks Program.
