SUMMARY:The 60th Anniversary of the Kecksburg UFO with Stan Gordon
DESCRIPTION:On December 9\, 1965\, a mysterious object fell from the sky into the woods near Kecksburg and December 2025 marked the 60th anniversary of one of Pennsylvania’s most enduring mysteries. In this compelling presentation\, Stan shares updated research and startling new details surrounding the incident\, including reports that suggest the object may not have originated on Earth and could have contained non-human occupants. Why did the military respond so quickly? Was something alive inside? And why has the public never been told exactly what was recovered that night? \nStan will also provide updates on recent UFO\, Bigfoot\, and other cryptid encounters reported throughout the greater Pittsburgh region and across the state. A book and DVD signing will follow the program.
