Full Report Text:
A bright golden orb I thought was the moon at first then blasted towards space It was around 7:30pm to 8pm, my mom, brother and a cousin came to pick me up from school at that hour. Mom took the military highway towards the international Pharr bridge and it was very dark already. It’s been 20 years so I only remember it was late November 2005 because of the course I was taking back then and it was only Tuesdays and Thursdays.
I was on the back of the car with my cousin who was tired and started to fall asleep, mom and my brother in the front of the car. I was on the back seat of the copilot(my brother’s seat) and as I looked to my window towards the front I noticed a shining orb slowly moving up the sky in a 45 angle I’d say. I originally thought it was the moon so I didn’t pay attention immediately, then I thought “Wait, that can’t be the moon.
”. As I reacted mom gasped for a moment and said that something weird was in the sky and my brother and I said the same thing to her. My cousin was basically asleep.
We kept looking at it and it just stopped moving, the orb was hovering. Mom parked on the side as she had stopped driving altogether, my brother started calling my cousin to wake up and see this, then the orb made a sudden zigzag movement, 3 zigzag lines and the last one it just blasted away to space. It was like seeing a shooting star going from earth to space, I only saw a flash of light as it immediately left.
My cousin had already come out of the car but he couldn’t see it as it had left already. And we also noticed that there was no one else in the highway that night, no other cars that we remember, but maybe there were, we just didn’t pay attention to them. The orb was medium, not as small as some of the orbs we saw on the news years later, but they looked basically the same and it was clearly visible in the night sky and wasn’t blinking, it was always with the same radiant intensity.
There were no clouds that day. I still remember that sudden zigzag movement and how it flew off in an instant, it was something I’ve never seen before or thereafter. We got scared after it left that suddenly so mom drove to the nearest gas station which was at the international bridge.
We went inside and just wanted to be around people cause we thought we had seen something we shouldn’t have or to see if anyone else had seen anything. But we didn’t notice that at all. The next few days we all had issues sleeping well, we were just terrified.
