United Airlines employees who swear it was something other-worldly in the skies above Chicago's O'Hare Airport on November 7th, but neither the FAA, nor indeed their own employer, appears to be taking them seriously.

Some say it moved so fast, it literally punched a hole in the clouds. United Airlines claims it had no record of the sighting, even though employees say they filled out reports.The FAA initially told the Tribune that it likewise had no information on the UFO.
