All Reported UFO Sightings in Fairfield, Texas

Full Report Text:

huge light that seemed to hover and then quickly dropped and climbed back up slowly We saw a huge light that didn't seem to move. We watched it while driving for about 20 minutes then it began to drop quickly. We then decided to video it and zoom in on it.

When we zoomed in, the shape seemed diamond but with what looked like many round lights in it. Then it changed into a thin, oblong shape that seemed to split into two parts and make other shapes- almost like symbols. We stopped the truck and put the camera on the dash and watched the said object jump in, out, and all around the screen.

It would then return to the diamond shape. It changed shape many times. We videoed the object for 27 minutes before it quickly became smaller and disappeared.

After watching the tape at home, we realized the object was not shaped like a diamond, but more like a spinning toy top is shaped. It would also seem to pulsate at different times, but only when it was in this shape.

Red glowing oval object with whitish blue halo effect Southwest of Fairfield, Freestone County observed for 20 minutes This is the second sighting in one week here in Freestone County. Because of the October 21st sighting, we have been very alert and scan the skies nightly. On the evening of Tuesday, October 28th 2008 I went out on our back porch to give a treat to our dogs.

I looked up in the South West sky and observed a large glowing orange/red object. It was not as bright as the stars and much bigger to the naked eye. It had no blinking lights like an aircraft so I called out to my boyfriend to come outside and take a look.

He came out, took one look and said to record exactly what time it was (8:20 PM), he then went inside and retrieved a rifle with a high powered scope and we began to watch this thing through the scope. We live on a ranch so we have open views and dark sky. This object "floated" or hovered for 13 minutes before descending or headed away so that we could not see it, although with our naked eyes it looked like it descended somewhere in the Jewett Mine area.

While watching it through the scope, we saw that it was emitting a faint white or bluish glow at varying times. It was very strange. We are now convinced that something is going on over the Central skies of Texas.

Please, please investigate and do not let this be explained away by military testing etc. I reported this sighting to MUFON and was contacted by an investigator. I cannot stop thinking about what we have seen the last two weeks.

Fairfield, Freestone County, Texas 3 cylinder long gun barrel shiny objects at dusk on Western horizon, there for over 20 minutes We witnessed 3 cylinder (gun barrel shaped / very long)objects at dusk on the horizon due West of our location. We had just been in town at a business meeting, the meeting ended around 6:30 PM and we drove out to our ranch (we live 6 miles from Fairfield). It was a beautiful Fall evening and we have a habit of hanging out on the back porch off our kitchen to watch the sunset.

My boyfriend and I noticed 3 long streaks in the sky low on the horizon to our West (toward Mexia/Waco). At first we didn't think much of them as we assumed they were jet trails of jets flying in formation. As we continued to do chores in the backyard, we both noticed that these "trails" or "streaks" did not disappear.

In fact, it became obvious that they were solid in shape and very shiny (the setting sun was bouncing off them and they were highly reflective). We decided to take a few pictures of the objects but we did not get much on the digital image. At the time when I was taking the photos, my boyfriend noticed two more similar objects in the South West that looked like they were traveling South to North.

We wanted to get in the truck and get a closer look but we knew they were too far away and we would probably lose them out of sight. Other normal air traffic was visible during the sighting. We see planes, helicopters and satellites all the time and these were not anything we had ever seen before.

We told our family about this early Friday, October 24th - that very same night a news report came on from Channel 8 in Dallas/Ft. Worth about the return of the Stephenville lights in Texas. We are about 90 miles from Stephenville and felt that our sighting might be connected.

The reason I said there were 4 witnesses is because we found out that two other people here in Fairfield saw them too, we just found out about that on Sunday. **Another person I do not know saw my report on MUFON and said they saw the exact same thing a few counties over, they wanted to contact me**** On Tuesday, October 28th we had another very strange sighting and I will report that seperately. Something is going on in Texas and it really needs to be investigated, it might be military but if so.

it is technology never seen before!.

Multiple sightings in Central Texas (Freestone County area) We live on a farm/ranch in Freestone County between Fairfield & Palestine near Highway 84. We have very dark skies and are used to seeing bright stars, satellites & multiple air traffic. I am going to report the multiple sightings that we have had in the last few months.

My boyfriend's family has had this land for 4 generations and he grew up here. He and other members of his family have seen strange things over the years but this year there has been lots of activity. We are only about 120 miles Southeast of Stephensville & 65 miles from Waco.

There are several airbases and strip mines (lignite & coal) in this area of Texas. I mention the mines because lots of activity seems to occur near them. I am going to give a description of each sighting over the last few months.

We really believe something is going on possibly military, possibly not. If it is military - it is something unbelievable and the technology is very different. 10/20/2008 - We (my boyfriend and I) had just arrived home and stepped out on the back porch of the farm to look at the beautiful sunset.

We noticed 3 long pencil shaped cylinder objects due West of us toward Limestone County (Mexia/Waco) somewhere beyond highway I-45 above highway 84W. At first we thought they might be jet trails. They were suspended at a 40-45 degree angle from the ground.

They did not break up like trails and we realized they were solid and very reflective. You could see the reflection of the sunset in them. I ran inside and got my digital camera and snapped a few shots.

They were in perfect formation. With the naked eye, nothing showed up on the camera screen but when I downloaded onto the computer we noticed you could see 3 white orbs or ovals in the picture when amplified by 200+. The strange part about this is with a naked eye these objects looked very long and solid like pencils or telephone poles in the sky but on film they were round or oval shaped.

We told some friends later in the week what we saw and they admitted that they saw them too and had commented how strange they looked. They were in their car on the way to a restaurant at I45 & 84. They also saw them due West/Northwest.

I will try and include a picture with this report. The incident lasted over a 1/2 hour. 10/28/2008 - We had just gotten home and went out on the back porch to feed our 4 dogs at 8:20 PM.

I observed a dull orange, red glowing sphere with a whitish glow in the center. It looked like it was hovering or floating just above the tree line in the Southwest sky somewhere between our land and Jewett (near the mine). My boyfriend ran inside and came back out with his rifle which had a high powered scope.

We took turns observing the object until 8:33 PM when it either flew over the horizon or descended (we felt like it descended). The next day we saw a report on the Dallas news that the Stephensville lights had returned so I decided to send them an account of what we saw. I contacted the Stephensville paper and reported the object.

They asked if they could use our description in an article so I gave them permission. The next day they published the article and there was a picture that had been submitted by an East Texas woman. Our verbal description matched the picture exactly (but we did not take any pictures that night).

Others saw what we saw! 11/25/2008 - Almost the exact same sighting as mentioned previously - orange, reddish glowing sphere with white center.almost dull like a halo around it. It was in the same Southwestern area and we saw it around 9:00 PM and watched it for 15 minutes - again it looked like it descended or went over the horizon.

Other air traffic could be seen and this looked nothing like the normal air traffic in the area. Since this was the second sighting of this kind we began to investigate our surrounding (helicopter landing sights etc.) but we found nothing.

12/3/2008 - Again, almost the same description as above - we documented it at 8:05 and watched it until 8:22. We could not get pictures because nothing would show up. 12/7/2008 - (This is our strangest one yet and involved three different sets of lights).

This sighting started out as the one above. We had just gotten back from Dallas & Waxahachie and went out on the back porch to feed the dogs at 8:19 PM. I saw the strange orange/red object and called out to my boyfriend to come take a look.

We watched it do it's normal thing (descend or go over the horizon) but this time as soon as we lost sight of it this bright white light appeared above it. This came on as if someone had turned on a lightbulb. This object began to flash bright multi colors in sequence.

The colors were amazing - blue, orange, pink, green, red. It was so bright it was hard to tell what shape it was. We got the rifle scope out again and my boyfriend looked at it through the scope - he said it was hard to tell it's shape.

As soon as he handed me the scope the light went off, again just like a light switch. I told him something was still there - right when I said that, 3 small piercing white strobe lights came on in a triangle formation. They kept strobing back and forth as if communicating or sequencing.

A high flying jet came into the airspace where this was going on and the strobe lights began to almost cartwheel over each other off to the North at a very high rate of speed. The next thing we knew, we were just looking at the regular air traffic (jets) on their route to Dallas. This sighting really shook me up.

While it was happening, my boyfriend called his mom who lives in town, she went out to see if she could see anything and she could not because of the tree cover in her neighborhood (very large Post Oaks). I reported this sighting to MUFON ( I had reported the previous sightings to them). The MUFON investigator contacted me and said that he had received almost an exact report of our sighting from a man that was driving home from Dallas back to Waco with his teenage son (they had been at a football game).

12/11/2008 - This is our last sighting. There is a well being drilled due South of our farm and we can see the rig lighting very clearly beyond our barns. I had gone out on the back porch at 10:00 PM and saw the strange multi colored bright light about 55 degrees above left of the rig.

We watched it for 40 minutes, I tried to film it but nothing appears on the video. It was not a star because we know our night sky and there has not been a star there before and there has not been one since. Please consider investigating this area of Texas if you are already investigating the Stephensville incidents.

We just want to know if it is military or not.I think NOT.

Full Report Text:

4 lights racing across the sky, then stop for a split second, one semicircles the others then all take a 90 degree turn and race away. On a perfectly clear starry night we observed 4 objects streaking across the sky from the southwest to the northeast. As they approached, all in the formation changed speed and position with the trailing object second from the right overtaking the other 3.

As this happened, all four came to a stop, the one in the lead circled back around, making a right hand turn. This stop and turn took less than a half second. All 4 objects then streaked away to the north/northwest at an incredible rate of speed.

The entire event lasted less than 4 seconds, all four objects crossed the entire visible sky in this time. The altitude of these objects looked to be at least at the extreme limits of the atmosphere. To give a relation of the amount of time involved, I saw the objects racing across the sky and told my brother to "Look at that!" and before I could say "meteor" the objects stopped, one in the lead made a semi circle right hand turn to line itself back in the formation and the other 3 made a 90 degree left turn and raced out of sight.

Each object was reddish orange in color and roughly the size of a bright star in the sky. None left a trail, they resembled a satelite as it tracks across the sky, but the speed of them along with stopping, circling and changing directions in split seconds leaves this out as anything manmade. A few minutes later, a jet airplane took a similar route but took approximately 7 minutes to cover a lesser portion of the sky, I mention this as a speed comparison only.

The only other object I've ever seen with comparable speed were shooting stars. None of these stop or change directions though. All the shooting stars I've ever witnessed also left a trail.

These objects left nothing in their wake, no trail no sound. Just incredible raw speed and manuverabilty. The 4 objects were not trailing one another but were in a formation, roughly equal distances apart and varied speed that changed their position as to which was leading.

When 3 came to a stop, it was only long enough for the one that overran the formation to circle back, the 3 that momentairily stopped immediatley resumed the speed from before and raced out of site.

A cylinder object with red and turquoise colors that had been moving back and forth, then stationary. It was a clear, early morning, with stars out. My friend has already been watching it for about a hour before I got to his house to go fishing.

He told me he had watched it zip back and forth (east to west), quite a bit, but that it had been stationary for around thirty minutes before I got there. Just looking up in the sky at it, it looked like two stars, one on top of the other. When I looked through his binoculars, I was really surprised!! I had never seen anything like it! It was a bright red and turquoise! (bluegreen) It was kind of flickering the colors, and I didn't know if it was me moving the binoculars a little or if it was kind of jiddering a little.

I watched it a few minutes then brought down the binoculars. I could still see a flash of red and then turquoise. It was only one object and my friend said it was shaped like a bracelet.

He could observe it closer when he watched it zipping back and forth with the binoculars. We were "in town", but the object was at a 45% angle to the east (kind of south too), which would have placed it over wooded areas. There's a river east of us about 20 miles.

don't know if it might have been over it or not. Best I recall, there was red on the top and bottom, and the turquoise color was in the center. It didn't effect us other than fascination! I'm 51, and I've NEVER seen anything like it before! Wish I knew if others had.

I watched it till daylight, then I couldn't see it any more. ((NUFORC Note: Ordinarily, our first assumption in a case like this would be that the witness is reporting a "twinkling" star. However, twinkling stars do not move across the sky in the manner described here.

We do not know what the witnesses saw. PD)).

Full Report Text:

A rectangular object with reflective illumination travels accross the sky I was riding my bike home from a friend’s house on the east side of Fairfield. Stopping to turn at an intersection, I noticed what I thought was a meteorite. The kind at high altitude that appears and disappears without slowing down.

It had the same speed and illumination of a meteorite moving from overhead to the southwest. The distinctive features that set it apart is that it traveled without a streak behind it. It was an object that was rectangular in shape with straight edges and defined corners.

Because of the distance, size could not be determined. However the height to length ratio was approx. 1 to 5.

The last feature of the object is that the side opposite from the west horizon was concaved. I attribute this feature to being the shaded side of the object. There were no other features observed.

((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD)).
