As a collector of ufology related works, I have two copies of a classic work called FLYING SAUCERS - SERIOUS BUSINESS by Frank Edwards (Lyle Stuart, 1966) and a paperback version by Bantam of the same year.
The hardback version published by Lyle Stuart includes a photo of an event labeled as : "One of two photographs of Portland, Indiana, UFO by Robert Kennedy. Object was in view an estimated four minutes. Shown here streaking from a fixed position. Kennedy, police officer Robert Glentser and other witnesses say object traveled in spurts, moved silently. Photo copyright Robert Kennedy. It is labeled as plate 33 on page 224.
This image did not make it into the paperback version I have.
There is a dearth of information about the photo and no clear mention or discussion of it seem to appear anywhere. It has no date (but must be from prior to 1966, the publication date). Portland is located just north of Muncie, Indiana and northwest of Dayton, Ohio.
Several possibilities present themselves: this is an image of one of the tests involving dispersal of chemicals or inert gases for measuring one thing or another (such as the Barium dispersal).
A test craft, missile, etc.?
If a UFO - - what is the story?
