Something out of this world brought about 1,000 people – mostly Kansans but some Nebraskans and Missourians, based on license plates – to the state’s UFO capital last summer. It may sound a bit out there, but not only has this community of 236 souls staked its claim, it’s raised its deflector shields to ward off any competitors. Add a guy with a daring and wacky sense of looking at things, plus a museum board’s vision, and you’ve got a happening. The end result is that Geneseo, about 100 miles northwest of Wichita in Rice County, is trying to take a portion of the state’s motto – “to the stars” – to a whole new parsec. It doesn’t matter what kind of being you are; the local humans just ask that you show up.
