Full Report Text:
I live in Rowlett, TX and on October 16, 2009 I saw a circular bright object that pulsated with multiple colors within it. I live in Rowlett, Texas and on Oct 16, 2009, at approximately 20:00 I was standing in my front yard . It was dark outside.
I looked up toward the western sky and saw what I thought was a bright star. When I looked further, it appeared to be flashing colors. I then thought it must be an airplane.
I kept watching it and noticed that it wasn't moving. I called my husband to come look at it. He couldn't determine what the object was either.
We grabbed my son's binoculars (not high quality) and was able to make out a circular shape with mainly the bottom half only visible. It was a white light with multiple colors flashing or pulsating within the sphere. The texture reminded me of a decorative ball made up of twine, meaning there were un-uniformed holes in it.
The object moved very slow. We actually watched it for approximately 25 minutes. It finally went behind a cloud and we lost sight of it.
I have no idea what it was. I know it wasn't a star, airplane, helicopter or planet. I've never seen a ufo.
This my first. I'm very interested in finding out what it could have been. I would appreciate any assistance.
Thank you, ((name deleted)).

Disc shaped object caught on cell phone camera in Rowlett Texas. My son was at a friends house in our neighborhood on 10/11/2009, he wanted to take a few random pictures with his camera/cell phone to see if he could catch a orb. At the time he took the picture he did not see the UFO, that is until the next evening when he was going through his pictures.
He showed us what he took and our first response was "that is a UFO". My husband and I then looked at each other and thought "Oh my gosh". My husband forwarded the picture to his cell phone and zoomed in on the object and it was clear as day, a UFO.
We spoke with the boys and they did not see the UFO or hear any strange noises. We are interested in understanding how they did not see the object and how it just appeared in the picture.
