en Amy Bizzarri Route 66's glowing mystery orb w:BBC https://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20221006-route-66s-glowing-mystery-orb 2022-10-07 As Route 66 historian Cheryl Eichar Jett, author of Route 66 in Kansas and founder of the annual Miles of Possibility Route 66 Conference, explained, "The Mother Road's historical path through Joplin, Galena, Baxter Springs and then south to Quapaw, overlaps the Hornet Spook Light's fame in the corners of Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma, where those three states' borders meet. And so, the legends and lore of the eerie light have become inextricably tied to the equally legendary highway." https://web.archive.org/web/20221117000942/https://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20221006-route-66s-glowing-mystery-orb
