No of observers: 2

Location: Claycomo, MO, USA

Shape: Unknown

I observd a dark stationary object very high in the sky that also glistend in the sunlight.

One late afternoon I OBSERVD SOME TYPE OF OBJECT VERY HIGH IN THE CLEAR BLUE SKY,BUT COULD NOT TELL WHAT IT WAS, BUT i DO KNOW IT REMAINED IN A STATIONARY POSITION THE WHOLE TIME I WAS WACHING IT. i WISHED I WOULD HAVE HAD ACCESS TO BINOCULARS. I originally thought it might be a baloon, but they drift along and this did not. I estimate it could have been up to 30000 ft high. I told my wife about it, but I don't remember if she came out to look. I watched this for about 2 hrs. or more untill I finally got tired of looking up into the sky, and as it was almost sunset I went inside my house.

As a final note I remeber it seemed to glisten in the sunlight, and that it was almost directly above me.
