UFO Sighting in Reno

A bright red unidentified object about five times the size of a star in
the sky hovered over the Reno area for about an hour, from 5:15PM to
6:15PM Pacific time.
Radio station KKOH (780AM) got plenty of phone calls about the object.
Reno police said they received no calls. The Reno airport said nothing
on radar and they watched the object, estimating its speed at about wind
speed. The airport rejected the balloon theory because even though the
object was moving at upper wind speeds, it came to complete stops,
becoming stationary at times.
Desert Research Institute, which launches balloons, was contacted, but
they had no balloons up. Helicopter users were contacted, and no
helicopters were in the area skies at that time. Naval Air Station said
they did not see the object and had no flights up at that time.
The Reno Gazette-Journal, ran a small notice of the sighting on the
second page of the second section today, 12/10/97.
