Texas UFO Sightings in 1987

Full Report Text:

A noiseless, round object with colorful bright lights, hovering in the desert of northeast El Paso Tx. by McGregor Range. On November 27th 1987 I was out in the desert, northeast of El Paso Tx.

close to McGregor Range. I saw an object hovering to the south of my location. The object did not make any noise and it had different colored lights on it.

The lights were going in circles around the object. The object appeared to be round and appeared to be large. As I watched the object hover it proceeded further east slowly and then moved west slowly, and in a split second it headed into the sky at a very high rate of speed.

I could no longer see it, and it left no trail, nor noise. I have never reported this to anyone, because I was always afraid of ridicule. Only people who have seen something like it will believe me.

Silver saucer object hovering on hill I saw the UFO on a hill that had a plateau. I saw the UFO about 20-30 feet off the ground. It was a silver disc-shaped flying saucer.

It was not rotating but it was hovering. I heard no sound and no wind movement from any propulsion system. I saw no windows, no alien creatures and it was perfectly level with the horizon.

There is electrical equipment on the hill where I saw it. There are also about 3 or 4 homes near there. (NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the incident is approximate.

Hey It's Following Us! A friend and I were leaving his house and we saw what we thought was a weather balloon. It wasn't dark outside but the sun had just went below the horizon. As we proceeded toward the town of Alvarado we kept noticing that it was changing the side of the car it was on.

We said to one another " Hey it's following us." When we arrived in town the light was just on the other side of the highway ,and looked to be about fifty feet off the ground. So we pulled into a church parking lot and decided to go that way.

As we started toward it, it remained just ahead of us for about two miles at that point it made a instant ninety degree turn and went straight up. It was gone in less than a second. ((NUFORC Note: Time and date are approximate.

Casa Grande Az I did see a giant V (triangle) shaped craft in the sky on a very dark clear night sky in Arizona by Casa Grande while we were driving on the highway between Tucson and Phoenix I believe. My boyfriend was driving. I was enjoying the stars in the sky by hanging my head out of the window looking upwards (imagine a dog) with its head out the window, that was me.

I was marveling at the millions of stars that were up there and being from Illinois with the light pollution, I had never seen so many stars in a dark night sky before. I was amazed!! So we are headed down the highway with no other cars, pretty solitary road that late, past midnight. I am looking up out of the passenger window and the largest V-shape came into view.

It blocked out the stars in its shape. It had no lights at the time and never shone any at all. We drove under it and all the time I was staring up at in an awestruck/dumbstruck frame of mind.

We were going about 55 mph and drove under it for a few minutes! (It was that BIG!!) It was so close and so silent that if you never looked up you would have never known it was there. It was like you could have stood on top of the car and thrown a rock at it and hit it, that is how close it was. Not a sound from it at all.

I kept my mouth shut and never told my boyfriend to pull over and look at this. I was just wondering what the heck I was seeing and never felt any fear just wonderment. We kept driving along and I kept my head out the window looking up watching it above us and I can just plainly say it was shocking.

Years later I wonder why I never said anything about it to anyone. So here it finally is. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate.

Sighting in Houston I was sitting in a hospital parking lot waiting for a friend who was visiting his sick mother. I was watching cumulus clouds drifting by when I spotted an object hanging overhead. It appeared spherical and metallic and seemed as if covered by rust.

It looked like a rusty ball bearing. It was hanging motionless at approx. 10,000 ft and was'nt drifting with the clouds like a balloon would do.

I decided to keep my eyes on this thing to see what happened. It hung there for about 20 min. until an airplane came into view from behing me flying in its general direction.

The airplane appeared to be approx. 5000 ft below the object and did'nt seem to know it was there. As the airplane came nearer to being under the sphere the object began to move vertically and accelerated until it disappeared from view.

I awoke to a loud vibrating noise and extremely bright light coming in through all the windows. Myself, sister, mother and father lived in the country. I was six years old at the time.

We all went out to watch a craft in the night sky with different colored pulsating light on it. Four jets tried to close in on it, but as soon as they got close enough it zig-zagged across the sky and disappeared so fast, it made the jets look like they were standing still. Same thing happened the next two nights.

On that third night after going to bed, I awoke to a loud vibrating noise and extremely bright light coming in through all the windows. My mother and father were running around naked screaming. That's all I remember.

I woke the next day feeling as if it was just no big deal. Not even eventful enough to mention. Years later I asked my mother about it.

She just stopped me before I even finished the question and told me she didn't want to talk about it. My sister remembers it just as vividly as I do.

disklike object, missing time,and haunted memories. Iwas on my way home from an oilfield where my husband worked.I glanced up into the sky and saw a disklike object.

It was matalic and had windows on the upper portion. Inside the windows,I saw an orange glow. I immediately pulled off the road and I remember saying to myself oh my God they are real.

The next thing I remember I was driving into my driveway and it was night.I saw an orange flamelike object in the sky,about the size of a basketball. I ran to get my husband which had just pulled into the drive.

I pointed at the object and asked him if he saw what I saw. He said yes. We watched the object go from the size of a basketball to a point of light in seconds.

I trully wish I knew what happened to me. It has haunted me ever since.I wish I knew where the missing time went.

I have not been able to talk to anyone about this for fear of what they would think, but I swear it is the truth and it scares me.

We saw a UFO that night that was about 400 feet long that made no sound and had a beacon of light shining out of it like it was looking It was about 2:00 AM in the morning I and my bother in law were fishing on some property I had near San Antonio Texas. I looked over to my right shoulder and there was a light on the ground. The pattern was about 10 feet wide.

But there was not a shaft of light coming to the light on the ground. I look up and about 150 away from me in the tree line was a UFO just hovering above the tree tops. No sound emitting from it at all.

  I told my brother in law and you believe that. We both looked at each other and kept fishing. We both are very well educated and have white collar jobs.

We did not say anything to anyone in fear of losing our careers that we want to keep. So we made a pack not to tell anyone about this sighting. Until now we have not repeating to anyone what we saw.

I just wanted someone to know what I saw. It was about 400 feet long and not a light on it. I could only see it by the light of the moon being behind it.

I was there for about ten minutes and it took off. The craft went staight up and out of sight. Just wanted to tell my story to someone that might understand what we saw that night.

Regards ((name deleted)) ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that date of incident is approximate. PD)).

i wrote to this site about 1 year ago and did not get a response from you. when i was 10 years old my mom called me and my brother and sister into a bedroom to look into a $50 old telescope to see what appeared to be a ufo. we live on an island and where living 5 blocks from the beach.

nothing was in the way of our view. there wasnt any aircraft that flew that course out in the gulf of mexico.no blimps at 2am or any other object that we could have miss understood to be what we saw.

when it was my turn to look into the scope i saw what appeared to be a bubble shaped neon blue/purple object. it looked like how a bubble looks in a glass of water. i could see the 3 dimention in the shape.

please bare with me. it then changed shapes, colors, patterns and into numbers. it first changed from 3d form to 1d view into a round circle.

it then flashed one at a time every color including neons1 per second. after the colors came every pattern there was. triangle,square,octegon ect.

then inside the circle flashed the number 1,2,3,4,5 all the way to about 20 then sped up so fast i couldnt count until it stopped at 100. i will always remember. im now 28.

i dont know what it was.ive never heard of any ufo doing this. and not a satilite.

they move. and if it was a satilite then why colors and patterns? i know that all i saw is universal to human culture. if you have heard of anything like this contact me please.

this is not a hoax.

cigar shaped ufo seen in Temple i was lying on my moms car at about 23:00 listening to my portable radio it was tuned to an Austin Tx station. there was a report of ufo activity at the airport, " the power has gone down for a mile around the airport there appears to be several crafts swooping and diving, like they are "dog fighting"." then the air went dead that is when this cigar shaped object with a needle like nose "slid" across the top of the building and hoverd there.

There was no noise, it was totaly silent. as far as i know I was the only one to see it. The lights along the sidewalks went out.

It had to be about 30 ft above the building. it sat there for about 2 minutes. I jokingly said "hey my friend is in Lampasas about 68 miles behind you.

". It "backed" up and left. shortly there after the radio started working again and the dj said that "there was military activity at the airport, and the airport was closed until further notice.

". The next day the radio said there was no ufo activity and it was just a hoax. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that date of the event is approximate.

Hovering white circle, half the size of the full moon explodes without sound shoots up into the stars and vanishes. Shortly after moving into our new home we noticed, while moving around inside our home, my wife and I would catch a glimpse from the corner of our eyes, outside the picture window a bright flash of light, coming from the back yard.We asked each other,did you see that? wondering what it was, it only lasted for a second.

This happened for approximately eight days,and always in the evening beginning around 9:00PM.This would happen only once a night (that we knew of) and not every night.The light was so bright it would light up the entire picture window like day light, in a flash we would turn our heads to look and it was gone.

One night(within the eight day period)I was sitting out on our pool deck,it was about 12 midnight,when this circular object rose above the horizon about 30 degrees, without any noise it approached very slowly above my head about 11:00, a (70 degree angle)when it stopped and hovered.It looked like the full moon only half the size, no glow just a yellow/white circle. I watched it as it appeared to stay still watching me.

Before my eyes this thing exploded without any noise, concentric rings of light blasted away from this circle lighting up thr entire back yard. It was so bright you could see the veins in the tree leaves. In less then a second out from the center of this object a missile shaped object shot out and moved at an extremely high rate of speed away on a near 80 degree angle up into the stars, about five seconds it was among the stars still moving as it vanished out of sight.

Saw a UFO before my daily run. I was in a park close to my home in a clear afternoon when I was excercising before my daily run. In one of my stretches, I bent over and went back up and something had caught my attention.

I saw in the sky above me a saucer still in one spot. I took a good look at it (15 to 20 seconds), it had a white, metallic color on the outside with a shape of a disk with a dome on the top. I looked around if someone else was also watching what I was looking at.

Nobody was, only me. I looked back up and the saucer was gone. I tried to see it in another spot in the sky, but didn't find it.

I saw a car in the clouds for about 2 minutes. It appeared to be a chevrolet caprice about 1980 model or so. I was attracted to the sighting by the lights of the car turning in my direction and the headlights hit my eyes as if a spotlight was shined in my eyes.

The weather was cloudy with low lying clouds but bright outside. The sighting was very vivid. The car appeared as if it were directed at me for about 5 seconds then tilted as if the headlights were pointed just above my head.

It stayed in that position long enough for me to grab the attention of my father and uncle. They dismissed me very quickly and did not even look up. I was trying to see if I could tell the make and model of the car when it turned to the right then, turned away from me.

I could tell it was grey in color and had red glowing tail lights as if it were breaking. It disappeared into the clouds in a translucent manner. At this time this car was a common car on the road (it was a car I was used to seeing).

The car was at a 45 degree angle away from me upward and seemed no more than 200 yards away. The distance of the car was much closer that the clouds but, it still appeared to be coming out of the clouds. I have never told this story.

Please contact me if there is any info on this event or others like it. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the incident is approximate. PD)).
