Houston, TX
While photographing performing airplanes at the Wings Over Houston Airshow at Ellington Airforce Base on Saturday October 9th, my father noticed a single small metallic object at a much higher altitude than the performing aircraft positioned directly overhead. Most of the performing aircraft were at a low altitude usually under 1,000 feet. It was difficult to say how high the object was since there was nothing else around it, but it was extremely high up; at least 12,000 feet if I had to guess, possibly much higher. He pointed it out to myself and two other spectators and we watched the object for about 5 minutes. The object was too far away to make out details, however it was clear it was not an airplane as it seemed to be stationary in the sky. As it was a sunny day with some clouds, the object seemed to be metallic as we could see a clear shine from it in the sun and it appeared to be a rounded. After a few minutes, the object seemed to drift to a diffe! rent point in the sky and then again became stationary. When moving, the object left no sort of trail and didn’t show any evidence of engines or afterburners. My father took a picture of it with his DSLR camera and after five total minutes of observing the object it moved behind some clouds and we lost sight of it. A week later my father and I were reviewing the pictures we took at the airshow and came across the picture he took of the object. Amazingly we were able to zoom in on the object and get a decently detailed picture of it. The picture shows a disc/oval shaped silver object very clearly. Based on what we saw and the picture, there is no way it could have been a helicopter, airplane, or drone. My father is an engineer, and I am an engineering college student. Aircraft have been a hobby of ours all my life and we have never seen anything move or look the way this object did. I’ve seen jetliners, metallic WW2 aircraft, and drones at high altitude and have always been ! able to tell that they are some sort of airplane; this object ! looked n othing like that.

As I was driving home in the evening on Friday night I saw a blinking light in the sky. It was stationary and had the appearance of an air plane's blinking lights. I watched it as sometimes airplanes look as if they are stationary. It didn't move at all for 2.5 minutes until it stopped blinking and glowed a solid green color for about 5 seconds and shot strait down towards the ground like a bolt of lightning. I thought if there is a person over there behind those trees on the horizon they just got an amazing show.

While walking our dog around the neighborhood we noticed a bright spherical shape/light moving slow in a strange path and about as high as a plane would be. I managed to record it for about 2 minutes on my Galaxy S10 phone before it seemed to zip away.

Corpus Christi, TX
At first I thought it was a group of white geese flying through the sky because I sometimes see that out here in Calallen, Texas a suburb of Corpus Christi, Texas but whoa was I wrong! I witnessed a white oval shape low in the cloudy night sky move slowly under the cloud clearing then insanely fast across the open clear night sky. It then stopped on a dime and hovered stationary for about five seconds before streaking off out of distance. The way it moved was so odd going from a steady cruise into high speed to stopping instantaneously. Mind you this was close enough to make out its shape & color. Definitely not what people are used to seeing as far as propulsion goes in our century. If Guessing it had to be thirty to fifty feet long. Classic saucer shaped but appeared oval as it moved in a spiraling fashion. Absolutely no sound. Craft had no lights, no wings, no propellers visible but looked like a white oval reflecting a hint of moonlight to make it visible enough to see against the cloudy black night. When it say stationary in one part of the night sky I moved to a clearer vantage point & at that point it turned into nothing but a streak in the sky and ! in a flash was gone. I ran inside to grab my binoculars, returned in less than 30 seconds and waited another ten minutes to see if it’d reappear. It was gone. Left me with a sense of fear as I was alone on a dark country dead end street staring up into the unknown. Went inside excited & somewhat scared that something like that is near my house.

Near Midland Texas, looking north, there is a light in the sky that is in the atmosphere but is not moving and I have noticed it there for about 3 hours. The object is brighter than the clouds with no blinking lights and not round. After I was watching it for about 3 hours it started getting smaller and staying in the same place as if it was moving away and then finally it disappeared. Thats it.

At approximately 03:00 I was awoken by an extremely loud, deep roaring sound from outside (similar to the sound of a rocket launch). Upon rushing outside I saw two bright white flashing lights traveling from west to east over my yard. My wife arrived a few seconds later and remarked that the objects had 3 small white lights on the corners as well as the center flashing light. I didn't notice this as I didn't have my glasses on. We watched the objects till they reached the horizon with the noise still audible even after they were out of sight. We returned to bed after they were out of sight at 03:05.

Mesquite, TX
The three bright orange (not red like a plane - bright orange) lights in a triangle on the front of each caught my eye first. Three crafts flying East to West over Mesquite (near 635/30) in a straight line, staying the same distance apart and at a very fast speed. Absolutely NO sound. Then the lights went dim on the first, followed by the second, then the third one's lights went out and they became these giant grey floating bubbles just like a kid's bubble toy would make with the sides flowing and moving. One single orange light remained on each and circled the interior in a straight path around the bubble. They were moving much faster than a helicopter but at about the normal altitude you'd see a traffic helicopter. No sound. Just three huge floating grey bubbles.

Walking my dog I saw a solid white object moving west across the sky. I took my phone and zoomed in on the object. It was white with a dark center. I thought it might a rocket launch but the only one that day was about 15 - 20 minutes later from Florida.

Dallas TX Saw what I initially thought was an airplane flying overhead, around 630 pm on a Sunday night. The object was extremely high up in the sky, appeared to be very bright white, and “tic Tac” like in shape. There were no wings. It was a white line flying north in the sky, and then it completely disappeared in the blink of an eye, which I filmed.

When my fiance, my best friend, and I were sitting by the fire pit in the backyard. My friend said "what in the hell is that?" I looked up and caught the tail end of what he was seeing before it disappeared before our eyes. To me it looked like a triangle shaped craft that had lights on it that were not flashing and all. They were not even that bright. They were just, lights. I couldn't make out how many lights. I think I might of seen 3, I'm not too sure though. It only was in my sight for a few seconds, but that was long enough to see the craft. It disappeared in almost what looked like clouds but it was a clear night.

Was sitting next to a little bawnfire talking and listening to music when I took a drink and looked up to see 5 small crafts flying in a V patten the same way geese fly & told my other 2 friends to look. They seen it too. It made no noise, was flying low, small crafts like maybe 2 humans could fit in 1, and then gone as quickly as it came.

Driving in my car I saw a black object floating in the sky over a field. I pulled over to get a better look. It was moving but not very much. Seemed to be pacing me or just still. I took few pictures and 1 video with my phone. It was getting dark. I turned my car around to face the other direction and looked up and it was gone. I had eyes on it for ten minutes or so. It was solid black in a tear shaped but it did have bright white light flashing from its center.

This happened in Houston close to downtown on 45 north and Main street while I was at the light.I was looking up like always when all the sudden I see 2 bright white ambulance type color lights in midar on my left side facing south.So I basically have downtown in front. The height was not many feet since they were noticable.There was no shape it was just lights.One would go up the other would follow,then across then it would follow like if they were playing tagg.I saw them for a few seconds because my aunt was in the front with her car and panic because i kept honking and pointing up but the light turned green and she was unable to see, although we did stop on the other side of the road which would be going north. I told her what had happen.

Walked outside.. didn't think much of it with stars & nighttime sorties near AFB. But sat out there are what appeared as a star.. this one suddenly moved North-NorthEast, stopped, moved slightly south, then moved again North-NorthEast then stopped. Since skies were clear it appeared it was between Bowie & Nocona. I went inside to get something to film this, came out & it was gone. This lasted 30-minutes & wish I had filmed it. Very bright inverted-diamond.

It was 2:30am and I had a fire going in my backyard fire pit and noticed something blinking in the sky and moving from spot to spot, almost like it was trying to get my attention. As I focused on it, it stopped blinking and stayed lit. I was seeing it through a narrow gap in trees so I moved to my front yard to get a better line of sight and it followed me up there. I flashed my phone light at it several times and then it zipped from spot to spot, up down, right left. It got extremely close to me, right above my neighborhood at the height local helicopters fly. I have numerous videos of this craft and when you zoom in and slow it down, as it’s flying up and down, it appears to be a burning ball of bright white and green gas, rapidly spinning while expanding and contracting. I am convinced it was interacting with me, not only because it followed me and was putting on a show but because thats the feeling I got, its hard to explain. Also, when zoomed in, ! it appears to be a classic “flying saucer” with some sort of force field around it. Ive reported it to MUFON and multiple investigators said it is what is seen all over the world. The experience lasted from 2:30am to 2:58am before it suddenly shot into the sky. I recently submitted a Freedom of Information Act for the sky radar with the FAA but we’ll see if they end up sending that to me. What I saw was real, it was not of this world, it was personal and it was breathtaking and shocking.

On August 21, 2021 at 11:47 PM. In the south east part of the sky appeared a very bright ball traveling south in a very fast pace. When I noticed it, I jumped up from my chair to see what it was. As soon as I stood up the ball divided into 2 smaller balls. They looked like 2 headlights in the sky. I was so confused what I was seeing. A few seconds later they disappeared. It’s like the lights turned off and boom they were gone.

We were in the backyard on the evening of August 19th, 2021. We saw what we initially thought were three different planes flying in the sky, one small, privately owned plane low flying, and two commercial planes that appeared to be at cruising altitude. We quickly realized that one of the "commercial planes" did not look like a plane at all. It wasn't shaped like a plane, and it wasn't moving in a normal, uniform way. It also came from a very high elevation, to a much lower elevation, in an unusually short amount of time. I ran in to grab binoculars, and through the binoculars, I saw something that was unusually shaped (possibly diamond/triangular/pentagonal shaped), and there appeared to be 4-6 lights/engines/something glowing, eminating from the shape, but we didn't see anything that looked like a heat signature, or any other signs of propulsion. It appeared to be a silver/metallic shiny object. One of us thought the shape had a haze around it. When I gaVe the binoculars to the other person, and I looked back, the shape/craft/thing was gone. We only saw the single object, but the sky also seemed to have silver flashes occurring while we saw the object, but that could have just been glare from the sun. It was a perfectly clear sky, and the sun was still shining. The two people that saw this object are both college educated, and have professional occupations. Neither people have ever seen or reported anything like this prior to the 19th.

me and my friend driving down hwy349 its pooring rain to the point we can barley see in front of us. Traveling about 30 miles per hour allow sudden one bolted lighting struck in ski and then there was this blinding huge oval shaped light blinding us and 2 18wheelers passed between us and that light and the light had turned grayish blue still blinding bright then poof it vanishes leaving a cloud of smoke in mid air..the pooring rain all of sudden stopped.just like that and there was a rain bow the grass was so green and the ski was brightened up as if there was a change in the universe or something....crazy..it sounds but I ask my friend what she saw and needless to say we both saw this...craziest ((word deleted)) I ever saw.

New Caney, TX
While walking out of Wal-Mart tonight I looked up and saw 6-8 orange lights all in a perfect row evenly spaced out kind of fading in and out, hard to explain exactly but it was like I was looking at something that I wasn't supposed to see, like it was glitch in the system and I got a glimpse of it. Almost looked like an electrical current of some sort but as soon as I saw it, it faded away. I don't think it had aliens in it or anything like that because it was too small, it wasn't like a spaceship. Kind of reminded me of the flashing lights in a school zone at least that was the shade and light consistency. Best example I can try to explain the shape of it is this. Imagine a hockey puck, now stack about 8 hockey pucks on top of each other, (the same way you would stack cans of tuna) except make them significantly larger like 8" in diameter and 8" thick stack them on top of each other, then lay the stack down horizontally and space all the pucks out! evenly about 6" apart and instead of them being pucks they were orange lights. Not the best visual description but that's how it looked and then it was gone into nowhere. It was almost like the lights were passing through an invisible conduit from one side of the sky to the other.

Something shaped like a skinny blue diamond was in the sky for 4 seconds (that's just how long I saw it before it disappeared, it could've been up much longer). From my perspective, it looked close to me but could've been far away and large. It was shimmering blue light but holding form. It was breath-taking. If it was indeed far away, then it was North of my location. Three minutes after seeing it, I saw what seemed to be a yellow shooting star zoom by. Who knows what that was or if it was related.
