KC Skyline Bubble - Magnet

Artifact ID: TIA-KCC-006-A

The photograph was filed without a name. Kansas City is visible inside the bubble—Union Station, the skyline, familiar towers and lights compressed into something small enough to hold in one hand. No report identifies who is holding it. The bubble appears twice more in the archive, each time under a different department and each time with the same handwritten warning attached to the file: Do not let it pop.
