Texas UFO Sightings in 2007

Full Report Text:

3 Orange Spheres moving West to East over Carrollton TX. I had just turned South off of Frankford Rd. onto Scott Mill Rd.

when out of the corner of my right eye I caught a glimpse of something out of the ordinary. Three round fire orange spheres were moving (at a seemingly slow pace) from the Northwest to the Southeast. These spheres appeared to be about a thousand feet above my vehicle.

As I continued southbound down the road I noticed several people looking towards the sky, so I assume there were other witnesses. When I returned back travelling north up Scott Mill the lights were gone. They were only visible (to me) for a few short minutes - maybe three or four.

I've seen plenty of airplane lights and stars and these were definitely not either of those. WEIRD!.

Slopw moving orange glowing object, then a single light and extremely fast moving On December 31, 2007, my 2 sons (ages 20 & 17) and I were on the driveway of my parent’s home in Groves, Texas. We saw a slow moving object in the sky coming from the southwest direction. The object appeared as if it had large yellowy, orange flood lights shinning from every side of it and the lights looked like they were in a fog (a hazy, glow around the object).

I looked everywhere else in the sky and the sky was very clear. The object was large. My sons thought it was a helicopter and they heard a sound from it.

It moved slowly across the sky at a 45 degree angle between us and due south of us. As it got approximately due south of us, the orangey lights went off and a small single white light was on it (not shining out from it, just on it). The object was not hazy anymore.

The sound stopped and it changed direction immediately (not a smooth turn, but instantly). It moved towards the southeast sky from our location. After it changed direction, the object moved extremely fast and was gone in approximately 3 to 4 seconds.

The object then looked as if it was extremely high in the sky and went higher as it moved away. It did not go out of sight towards the horizon, but went out of sight moving up and away. A plane could not have covered that much distance that quickly.

My son called the local airport that night and again the next day (to talk to someone else) to ask if anything had been reported. They had no reports of anything. The sky was very clear that night and stars were all around.

Conspicuous Lights seen in Night Sky over McKinney, Texas During several nights in the week ending 4 January 2008, I have seen very bright lights over the different locations in McKinney, Texas. Since this area is in the landing path for DFW airport, I was not initially alarmed by what I saw. The objects were visible due west from a position located near 33.

23 N by -96.68 W. I studied the objects with binoculars, comparing their distance to landmarks, and determined by their orientation to those landmarks, as well as compass readings, that they were not aircraft in the landing path.

After several minutes of careful observation, it was determined they were fixed. Five minutes later, one of the objects changed its position. Then, another.

Eventually, all three objects departed. On 3 January, another set of lights was seen over a different part of the city. From a closer vantage point, it was clear the object was hovering over the east side of US75, possibly 2KM, near US380.

My first impression of these objects was that they were helicopters performing some sort of high-altitude scanning. It is unusual to see helicopters flying so high, especially when they are stationary. The lights, again, were very bright, similar to the landing lights of large commercial jets.

Indeed, they were even discernible against the brightness of the western sky just after sunset. The lights did not appear to be flashing from any place on the aircraft.

Sightings of object in Bay City, Texas We were at our deer camp and we heard a noise and I just said that it was a jet. But it was loud. My husband went outside and said come here and look.

It was way lower than an airplane would fly, but dark where we could only see the lights, Was very very wide. It moved kind of slow. The next day we tried to call the B.

C. Airport to see what it might have been or if they knew anything about it. No one answered.

So we blew it off. Now that everyone is seeing things like what we have seen sort of, I decided to inform you. I don't think it is a UFO, I seem to think this is a govenment thing.

I guess we will never know. The lights were white. We have been puzzled ever since and wondering.

We left alone, because we did not want people to think we were crazy.

What might this be? My family was taking advantage of fine weather one evening, and had hauled a TV outside on the spur of the moment to watch a movie. At the time listed above, I saw what resembled a very large meteor (but was not a meteor or space shuttle) traveling from north to south, as you look from the west at a downward angle of appx. 40 degrees.

The total visible path of the object was around 8 inches with your hand held at arm's length, though the visible light trail was around 2 inches long and 1 inch wide. It lasted around 4 seconds, and had a very visible color tint, which I saw as green, but could have been a trick played by my eyes, since it was, after all, nighttime, and I had been looking at a television. I fetched my DSLR and telephoto lens, but nothing ever showed up again.

Please continue reading, as I will tell you the results of my foot search. (The movie was "Swing Kids" not a sci-fi movie or anything at all! This rules out any influence from the movie making me "want" to see something.) I have seen meteors lasting for over 8 seconds, and shuttles re-entering the atmosphere, and this resembled them, except that it seemed much, much closer.

The dimensions of said trail are seen above. I estimated, based upon the horizon, trees, etc. that the object was 1.

8 to 3 miles away. Later that evening, I wondered if the object could have been a plane crashing in the area, and decided to go search. I pulled out my GPS, marked 3.

5 miles, and set out. I trespassed for hours, and the only civilization I observed was a large oil well complex, with a small metal building. I got the number to the oil company, and after a little asking around, I found that they do not have any aircraft in our area.

Therefore, I have not resolved what I may have seen. I don't believe in ailens, there were no "substances" in use, either! In addition, I called the attention of my mother and brother to the object by saying, LOOK, LOOK! Upon which they responded, "where?" and the object was, by that time, gone. Thank you, any information is much welcomed.

Dark Gray smokey shaped saucer above the highway I reported this before on the website, and was happy to know someone in Stephenville also saw it. Driving into Dallas on Dec 27th, I saw a plate up in the sky and then it turned horizontal and looked exactly like a UFO. It was about 1 mile wide and was very fluid and blurry looking.

It was diagonally going down, like it was going to land. It was a VERY overcast day. The craft was dark gray, no lights.

I was embarrassed to tell anyone but this website. (see previous entry) I heard no noise, but definitely saw a fluid-like metal object up in the sky for several minutes. It was not a reflection because it kept going down to the left and I was traveling straight ahead down the highway.

Please let me know if anyone else has seen this in Garland, between Mesquite and Dallas, Texas, 2 hours East of Stephenville. Thank you so much.

Nighttime headlight looking objects on the road doing a 90 degree turn in front of my truck (twice). On Dec. 24, 2007 at approximately 00:15 on FM 1421, Brownsville, Cameron County, Texas, we were headed South in my Ford Ranger at about 40 to 50 mph when we observed what appeared to be the head lights of an on-coming car in the opposite lane about 500 feet ahead of us bearing North.

As the “headlights” got closer (about 50 feet before passing us) they made a complete 90 degree turn in front of my truck, passed into the farm field next to us and disappeared. This was witnessed by myself and the passenger of my truck. At that point I slowed down to about 20 to 30 miles an hour the passenger of my car and I turned to each other and almost at the same time exclaimed, “Did you see that?” About 10 seconds after this event and both of us being somewhat confused but alert we noted another set of “head lights” coming down the road in the same lane in the same Northerly direction as the previous set of “head lights.

” Although not expecting these second pair of “head lights” to perform in the same manner, that’s exactly what they did (a completely perfect 90 degree turn about 50 feet in front of us) vanishing, again into the field next to us (our right). It is important to note that the second instance was a more pronounced experience as myself and the passenger of the truck had just witnessed the first incident and were, by then, in a state of high sensory alertness but also completely dumbfounded and confused. After the second instance, I immediately stopped and got out of the car to look into the field were the lights went and could find no trace of either object.

Please note that the color of the lights were off-white and seemed to be set farther apart then normal head lights. As the lights passed in front of the truck they also seemed to have a tail…like a comet. Also important to note is that if these “head lights” had just gone by us I would have thought nothing of it and would have assumed they were normal cars despite the headlights being set slightly farther apart.

It was agreed by myself and the passenger that evening and over many, many recounts of the event at later times (these recounts continuing to the present) that neither of us had ever seen anything maneuver like these lights. We also both agree that if there would have just been one event then we would have probably discounted it…but both events happened in succession…one after the other. I can’t even begin to guess what those lights were.

Flashes of Greenish/Blue light over Clear Lake I was in my backyard at 6:04pm, I know the time exactly because I looked at the time, then at the moon. As I looked at the moon and the stars, as I do everynight, off to my right, just above the treeline, there was a bright greenish/blue flash. Honestly as I caught the tail end of it, my first thought was, someone had set of some fireworks, even though there was no noise, and I just caught the cast off falling to the ground.

While looking at this spot in the sky, to hopefully see the next flash as it happened, another flash appeared to the left in the sky, I turned to look at it, but it was gone, then right in front of me again above the treeline, another flash, and then again to the right, yet another. Whatever this was, it moved so fast that I couldn't keep up. I never once got to actually look right at it.

It was the most beautiful light, and I have been looking for it to happen again the last few nights, but nothing. If anyone saw this, over the Clear Lake area, please confirm that I don't just have some tumor that was rapid firing in my brain. Thanks, anyone with ideas of what it was would be nice as well.

I saw a light coming towards the ground and shot due west and then disappear. I know others saw the same thing, they were all pointing I was driving home from work on HWY 181 when there was a bright light that just kind of appeared with a small light trailing it. It was coming south towards traffic for about 15 seconds maybe, the height was about 2 telephone poles high.

As it came closer it shot due west, after turning west you could see it for maybe 5 seconds and then it was gone. I know other drivers saw it because they were all pointing at the sky in the same area i saw it. I think i am a really rational person, however i could not explain what i saw, i know it was not an airplane or helicopter.

I know i saw something. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)).

Well about the 19 of december 2007 I saw a "bright light"moving toward me ,then to the right ,left, right and then solidifies to a squared form blue and dissapears.I dont know what I saw. No sound at all.

It was not a plane or helicopter. All this happened on El Paso writh on front of Ft. Dix.

About two miles away from my home. I dont know What I saw. It was a yellow bright light and then turn to light blue and solid rectangular form and dissapear.

It took about o1:00 hours to be seen this in time. Again I repeat I dont know what I saw? But I know it was not from here. To many things like no sound and the directions it took wich it is impossible for a plane to perform.

A helicopter with no sound it is also imposible. From right to left no sound … Hope to hear from you. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the incident is approximate.

PD)).

12/17/07 Corpus Christi Tx Orange ball light comming at me 8 to 900mph when I shinned LED light at it. Im at the beach in my car about 1 mile from bob hall pier, when I see a non moving orange light far out over the gulf of mexico. The distance about 30 to 40 miles away from me, and the light was 3 to 4 feet above the water.

I am starring at it thinking it was an oil rig light, when I thought I saw it move a little bit. I decided to shine my bright LED Light at it and got its attention, and boy did I. It started coming at me fast about 8 to 9 hundred mph.

I was scared, but my curiosity got the best of me. It took 1 full minute to stop 30 yards in front of me in my car. I had my car window down with my arm out the window and kept shining my led light at this no sound at all, the size of my fist orange ball of pulsating light playing with it for 2 or 3 hours.

It was frozen still staring at me, and moveing left to fight up and down. I tryed to get closer to it by chasing it down the beach, but it would'nt let me get any closer than 30 yards. It just kept the same distance when I was moving or not moving.

It stayed with me untill sunrise and slowly moved away 3 feet obove the water and faded away. I've also seen in 10/29/2008 another dark orange submersible ball light in another area moving squiggly fast under 2 feet of water in the bay very simuler to my first sighting. They are real.

I can take you to see for your self, I got 3 hot spots. Im an honest person and I will take a lie detecter test. If you have any questions you can call me.

((NUFORC Note: We cannot certify that this report is intended by its source as a serious-minded account of a sighting. PD)).

Two converging, then disappearing moving lights. Two lights in the sky moving very fast. they eventually converged and suddenly disappeared.

I thought they may have been fast moving aircraft, but they were moving much faster than normal aircraft, and had a single light, and when they converged, they disappeared, rather than exploding (as one would expect if they were aircraft).

Bright colored lights that stayed fixed in one location for more than an hour! Went out in back yard around 10:00pm to look at stars through binoculars. Southwest was a bright light that was changing colors (or had other colors around it). Mostly stayed white but mixed with blue, red, and green colors.

I first thought it was a plane but when I checked later (about 15 minutes) it had not moved. I then called my parents who lived a couple of miles away and they also saw the different colors. All the while, the light stayed stable and when I rechecked an hour later with my wife and son, it had only moved as far as the earth's rotation would take it.

((NUFORC Note: Sighting of Sirius?? PD)).

light that looked like a star moved from below the moon to above the moon in ten minutes On 04/20/07 at 8:05 p.m. Central time in Tyler, Texas, I arrived at a family member’s home from across town and reported the unusually beautiful moon and two bright stars (to me a twinkling light is a star, until it moves, of course) low in the western sky.

My family member said that at time there should at most only be one bright “star” in the West and it should be Venus. This family member became curious and walked away from the building to get a clear view of what I was looking at. We were looking at partial moon several degrees above Venus and that there was another bright object, about one inch (at arms length), to the left and slightly below Venus.

After watching for a few seconds we realized that this object was moving slowly up and a little to the right in relation to Venus. As the object moved it slowly became less bright and disappeared from sight in about ten minutes. The total “distance” traversed during this time was about three inches (at arms length) up and to the right and then it disappeared almost directly above Venus but very slightly to the right.

On a clock it would appear to be at three minutes past the hour. During this slow transit we realized that there were very tiny and very difficult to see flashes of light at a distance of about one quarter of an inch (at arms length) in all directions from the object. These flashes seemed to both come from the object and come from outside the object.

My family member said that the apparent movement of the object would indicate that it was not inside of the atmosphere. If the object was, it would have to be increasing in altitude but somehow reducing in reflectivity. At that time of day (just after sunset) the object did not move far enough East to pass the solar terminator and lose its light source.

The object also did not seem to be moving fast enough to reach escape velocity. The sight of the moon and two “stars” was so beautiful. If I had not stopped to look at them, this sighting would never have happened.

My family member would not have come to look at it, too. We would not have realized that one of the “stars” was moving and wasn’t a star at all. My chant to everyone I know is to look up! Cloudy or Clear! Day or Night! Look up!.

Two small oval objects over a neighborhood I went on break this morning and went outside. There were so many plane contrails in the sky, I couldn’t believe it. There were six of them that looked to be evenly spaced apart.

I have been going outside on break here for the last 8 years and have never seen the uniform pattern I saw today. There were actually at least ten to twelve contrails all over the sky. I looked up in the sky above our building and to the west and I saw an object in the sky just sitting there.

As I was staring at it all of a sudden to the left appeared another one and it was moving from west to east. It passed right in front of the 1st object. They could have almost collided.

It was moving at a steady pace. It was not moving too fast. It was not that high in the sky.

I guess if I had to compare it to my building. My building is about 18 to 20 feet high. I was looking at an angle and it was probably 2 ½ to 3 times my building in height in the sky and 100 to 150 yards away maybe.

I got a good look at it. It was oval shaped, it looked to be silver. I watched it go about several hundred yards and then fade out.

It disappeared. I looked back to see the other one, but it was gone. It was really cool to see.

I couldn’t believe it. This is not my first sighting of a UFO, but it was definitely the most awesome to see. I started to laugh because it happened right in my plain view of sight.

I didn’t have to squint or guess at what I was seeing. I immediately called my wife and then my father after. I see planes fly over all day going to Austin Bergstrom.

737’s, 747’s, cargo plane’s, jet’s, Cesena’s and helicopter’s every once in awhile. These objects were silver looking, oval and had no wings. They made no sound.

Without a doubt there are objects in our skies that defy physics as we know it. They were over a neighborhood of homes.

We have a huge window over our front door and me and my 13 year old son were talking to my wife, looking in the directions of the huge window (north) and a bright blue ball, circlular shaped "thing" decented from the sky at a moderate speed. I don't know what it was, but it made such an impact on me that I am now searching for other witnesses to discuss what they saw as well. The object also had a glow.

I'm no UFO fantatic, but am very curious to what others saw in the Houston/Pearland area. Beltway 8 & 288.
