Triangle over Bryan, TX
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Traveling east down Villa Maria crossed the hwy 6 over pass notice a bright white tube shaped object larger than anything I have ever seen in the sky hovering, not moving whatsoever above the Brazos Center. I pulled into Brazos center parking lot and the craft slowly moves out of sight heading east. I continue onto 1179 as I approach Grassburr road I see what appears to be the same object in the sky hovering above the left hand side of Grassburr Rd. I pull off on grassburr and stop my truck and get out. Im standing there and the craft is moving towards me silently its incredibly bright white light I was unable to stare at it without my sunglasses on. It appeared to be 200 feet or so up in the air and about 500 feet in front of me when the edge of the craft closest to me dips down revealing it true shape, best way I can describe it is imagine a triangle and at the points are also the center point of circles and these three circles overlap forming one mass. As the edge of the craft dipped I saw the top of it and it was more of a gray color but the color was not solid it looked like the three circle areas that form the craft were energizing in some way. The size of the craft was about 300 feet or so from one side to the next much much smaller than the one that was hovering over the brazos center. The craft hovered at this angle “looking at me” for maybe 4 seconds then it leveled back out forming the shape of tube and turned back to bright white and crossed over to the right side of grassburr road and hovered above the pasture at a height of about 700 ft. I was super excited by what I was seeing and wanted it to come back closer so I turned on my lights and flashed them and the craft ended up moving up and away heading south west towards south College Station. I waited till I could no longer see the white light about 10 seconds. As I was preparing to turn around something caught my eye again! It was another tube like craft that was bright white traveling from east to west chasing after the craft that had just left, it appeared to be smaller than the one I saw over the Brazos center but its hard to say, also the one above the brazos center was massive and I dont think it was the same one that “looked at me” me on grassburr Rd. So I head on down 1179 and when I turned left at the “T” intersection something else caught my eye a smaller helicopter black in appearance flying in the same direction as the two previous crafts went.

Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.

While watching the space station track from the NW to the SE over central Texas, I noticed a ufo that I estimate to be approximately 20 miles to the (East) of the ISS and following it in synchronized formation at 15,000+ mph. The UFO produced a bright white & blue glow about every 3 seconds, but in between the flashes the ufo was illuminated by sunlight but to a lesser degree of intensity than the intensity during its alternating white & blue flashes. It made no sound. And I estimate that it was near the 250 mile high orbit as the ISS. I watched it for about one minute until both objects disappeared into the earths shadow, though the pulses from the UFO continued to be visible for about another 15 seconds until clouds obscured my view. The UFO was diamond shape, and appeared about twice the size of the area of the ISS illuminated by the sun. I am 53,and have been flying airplanes for 37 years, and helicopters for 30 years. I have never seen anything like this.

I seen an object flying over my house from the East towards the West traveling very fast. I believe it was circular in shape 25-30 ft in diameter but not 100% certain. There could have been more of it that was not visible. No lights on it, the moonlight reflected on it and made it visible, no sound. Not sure how high in the air it was, but I believe it may have been 100 - 500 feet up. Happened very fast with just a little illumination from the moon.

Began as three thin lines of light in a vertical line. After a minute one disappeared and the remaining two stayed in position, a minute later a second seemed to flash in and out and eventually disappeared as well. The final light stayed a few minutes afterwards until finally disappearing. Objects looked like they were refracting light in the same way a prism would.

Leaving Bryan, Tx about 4 in the morning I saw this bright light appearing as if hanging from the moon. It never left the location from the moon.

On May 24th, 2017, at approximately 07:12 AM CST, I was driving SE on SH 47 (Riverside Parkway) in Bryan, TX. Just before taking my exit (HSC Parkway), I noticed a spherical, shimmering object hovering over the Snook, TX, area. It appeared basketball in size, silverish in color, and at a high altitude (1-2 miles). The angle on the horizon was approximately 75 degrees. This is close to Easterwood airport, so I initially thought it was a plane, then maybe a helicopter. However, the shape was not quite right. I was driving, so my attention wavered from the object to the road. It was a bright, clear day and I noticed no unusual sounds or nearby objects. As I was about halfway down the exit ramp, the object appeared to change shape into an oblong cylinder and then disappeared. It left no trails or smoke. The event lasted approximately 5-10 seconds. Weather conditions were as follows: Wind , WNW, 9 mph; Humidity 65%; Dew Point 54°; Pressure 29.8;8 in Visibility 10.0 mi. I have a master’s degree and am a middle aged male. I have a good understanding of Astronomy and Physics. I have seen videos of similar events, but was skeptical of them until now. Whatever that object was, it defied the laws of Physics as we know it.

I arrived at work and was walking across the parking lot toward my office building when I noticed what I thought was a small airplane banking back and forth in the sky to the northwest. I thought maybe it was a stunt plane, but then I noticed it had a flat oval disk-like shape, twisting and turning in place. I continued to walk across the parking and for a short period the object was eclipsed by the building, so I walked around to the side to get a better look. The object was still there. For half a second, I though maybe it was a bird soaring in the wind as there was a pretty good breeze blowing, but it appeared to be hovering in place, although it was twisting and turning - plus, it had a definite oval shape. A few seconds later, it stopped turning and exited away to the north/northwest until in was no longer visible. I can't say with certainty that there isn't a prosaic explanation for what the object was, but it was strange. Possibly a drone, but unlikely with how it was turning over in the sky and then just flew away. As best as I can tell, the object was maybe about 300 yards away, about 35 to 40 degrees in elevation from my position.
