Report:
I was worried about my daughter so I went out looking for her at a place that I knew she might be staying at.I started to notice that something was trying to get my attention.I looked through my rear veiw mirror and I saw a bright light way up high behind me in the sky.Once I noticed it it was like it knew it had my attention.I rolled down my window to look up at the sky to see if there really was something there.What I saw scared me this bright light was coming across in full view slowly stopping at times and then continuing to cross past me in the sky to my left.Chills were running up and down my back. I immediatley called my brother and told him what was happening to me., and that I felt that it was waiting for me to drive away from where I was parked.He stayed on the phone with me and said., keep me on the phone and drive over here and pick me up.I said okay stay on the phone please...I"m very scared.As I drove off the light in the sky started to move with me.As I pulled on to a clear open road I hit the gas pedal as fast as I could my brother was only a couple of blocks away from where I was.I sarted to cry uncontrolably because all of a sudden I felt like something was going to take me .There was such a strong force field coming up behind me I could feel it through my bones through my hair teeth and my nails a strong presence.I looked through my rear mirror and I saw this huge enormous light at least two car lengths wide coming fast up behind my car it was right on my bumper.I started to scream real loud I was crying and trying to not wreck as fast as I was going.All of a sudden it disappeared as fast as it had appeared the first time like it was never there. My brother was waiting in the front yard for me he said com down sisiter let me get in the car and lets go see what it is we went all over abilene looking for something we never found.I do remember tyhat it would come in and out of the street light fixers close to the highway lights so that at first i didn't know it was following me that night before it tried to get as close as it did to me.I feel that it sensed how scared I was and how disstraught I was that it made a decision to leave me alone that night in question.

Report:  
We were headed to New Braufels for a 5-day getaway for our anniversary. As we were nearing our destination, we were driving through Round Rock, TX on I-35 South, and I saw these lights ... about 3 white ones, and 2 red ones just hanging there above the interchanges. At first, I thought it was just a slow-moving plane; however, as we came closer, I said to my husband, "Look! It's just hanging there!" He said, "It's just a plane." I responded that planes "just don't hang" in the sky; they must keep moving. He said that it could just be "one of those military planes that can do that." I said, "What exactly type of military plane can do that?" He said he didn't know, but he was sure there was one. The entire time we were having this conversation, I was watching this thing, and I kept telling him that it was STILL THERE, and it was NOT moving. I said, "It's a UFO!" He said he didn't think so. I said, "If God can create our world and all of these people and give us the intelligence to create all that is around us, do you think he just did it for only EARTH? I don't think so." He said, "Maybe; I don't know." As we continued to drive, we couldn't see it any longer. I am a believer in UFOs as my family saw them on a trip to Colorado hovering over us for miles, darting back and forth. I was about 10 years old at the time, but it is a vivid memory. Now, some years later, I see this thing just sitting stationary over a very busy city and interstate; it is something to think about!!

My name is Sxxxxx Vxxxxx I hope That you can handle what I am About to reveal some will say it didn't happen ...I have asked myself did it happen .And then I listen to the recordings my brother made as the events happened ...That's when I know it was real.I have pictures.I have recordings I have an Alignment that was passed on to me by the intity that I don't know how to read it would take a math scientist or a professional to explain it to me......I have a mini video that I captured on my cell phone where this intity revealed pictures that I shouldn't have .They gave me a message that I need to pass on to somebody that knows what to do about all the information they have passed on to me.At times in some of the events the intity almost paralazed me sometimes i couldn't move sometimes i couldn't breath correctley as it sent it's message through my body.My brother was and has been a witness to almost all my incounters rather it be by phone or him standing in the same room with me as these things happen.if it were not for my brother being by my side telling me to hold on and not to be afraid and to stay strong I do not think that I would be standing here today .He kept me strong enough to let them relay all the pictures and events that have occured to me.There was one time when I was living in stamford texas .I had just moved up there from abilene,tx.I was still not completley moved in so i had a moving truck parked out in front of the property in stamford tx.The wind started to get very violent and I was in the house I thought there was a bad storm coming .So I went to our bedroom window to look outside to see what was happening outside....what I saw overwhelmed me.I saw like a dome shape grey black cloud.You know I felt like I was under something it was huge and it covered all of stamford or it looked like that to me.It settled wright over the house I was in.Then all of a sudden all these things started coming out from under it it looked like 10 or more different lights just swarming in different directions some came out together and some came out alone behind the rest they were different shapes and sizes there were many of them...My brother was allready on the phone with me at this time  had somehow managed to call him even though I was having chest pains I could hardly move...by the time I knew it I was in so much pain I had to sit down....my brother kept trying to calm me down asking me to relax and to take it all in so that whatever was out there could show me ...what they wanted to show me..I said brother I can do this ..as I said that all of a sudden one of the small ships started to come down towards me side ways it looked like it wasn't coming straight down in a straight form it was coming down in an angle but towards me .I said brother it's getting close to me ...He said stay cool just relax it's not going to do anything just keep describing what you are seeing so I can have it on this recording.All of a sudden the ship stopped. I could see it well it was staring at me the intity was staring at me I was scared to death the pain in my chest was at a max by this time .It just stood still in the sky staring at me..I was so scared ...then all of a sudden it went straight up ...back towards the others passing up above......and the dome started to lift and the trees were standing straight up that's how forcefull the wind and the energy was ....the trees were straight up... the wind was everything was violent like a tornado...was about to occur.My brother said sylvia sylvia go outside see if you can see where they are going....I said okay I felt the release on my body when the ship that was looking at me went back up I knew that what ever was in that ship wanted me to feel this pain and to see who was doing this to me......I ran outside .,and I stood on the bumper of the moving truck out front I looked up as the darkness was lifting ...And then I saw this huge ship space shipe something I had never seen ever in my life It had to be two football fields long And one football field wide..and under it had four ships connected to it in different sections underneath it.....it had a c shape at the end of it it looked like to letter c's facing each other......then more ships strated coming out across the sky I mean alot of them ....all of a sudden it split and formed like 15 big balls of lights and it went in different directions and the whole dark black dome that was covering everything in the sky lifted and disappeared.All the ships that I saw that day were crossing together they were almiost transparent...but I got to see them I got to witness them crossing ...Can some one help me understand all the messages they have given me ....some one needs to see what I have.......the pictures I have The recordings my brother took as it happened to me.The aliegnment that was given to me that I do not know how to read......

On this particular night .I was pretty scared about driving from abilene texas back to stamford texas where I had just moved .But I was still traveling back and forth trying to finish getting my things out of my mothers house.My brother who was trying to help me stay strong with all the things that had already been happening to me said don't be afraid just call me if you need me on the phone okay.You see strange things had already been happening even before this night.I said okay brother I am going to make myself believe that I will make it to stamford texas with out being afraid that something is going to happen.So I started out towards anson texas that is in direct route to stamford texas you pass through anson to get to stamford.Well it was pretty quite out side a little bit of dark clouds but not many. I was driving along the highway scared to death but reassuring myself I would make it up there safe.As I was thinking this to myself to the right of my right side window I saw this flashing redish orange light appear .I thought it's probabley just an airplane or a weather balloon.I was barely getting close to anson texas but I could still see it as I drove through anson.As I passed through anson I headed out towards stamford there is just a stretch of highway of total seclusion before you get to stamford well as I drove out of anson I saw something happenning in the sky with that orange bright light I had been seeing.As I was driving to stamford from abilene.It started to move up then down then across then side ways fast......then it would sit real still in the air .I said to myself oh my god what is that ....It crossed slowely in front of my car but up high but where I could still see it ...then it came around to my left side of the car. I was still driving I was not stopping for anything or anyone I was that scared... I tried to call my brother but I couldn't get through to him ..My nephew at the time was on the phone talking to his girlfriend so he didn't switch over on the phone line to see who was calling .So I was all alone with ever was about to happen to me....I just kept remembering what my brother would say to me when things were occuring to me stay cool sister don't panic just let it occur see what it wants.....so I tried to stay calm but my heart was beating fast as it came closer and lower from the sky ...it looked orange and like a very bright star.But as it got closer I could see it was a space ship an unsual shaped space ship.It drifted to my left but low enough so that I could see it and slow enough so that I could observe the inside of it and it was not human.. it was an intity not from here ...it's energy was breathtaking that is how strong it felt being that close to my car.The energy level was so strong...it felt like if it were going to lift my car and take me off this highway it could easily have done it.But it didn't. It came close enough for me to feel it's presense and to see the ship that it was traveling in was like no other ...at close range .I felt like it was putting in my heart and mind.....a message {This is who we are tell somebody about this about what you are seeing.}......I could feel pressure in my body I was having trouble breathing but most of all I was afraid I would never be seen again .I started to pray within myself for it not to take me away from my grandaughter because she only had me in her life .I was the only one taking care of her...I started to cry for it not to take me. I was praying so hard I didn't even relize that I was almost close to stamford this incident happened inbetween anson and that small stretch inbetween on the highway that leads you in to stamford tx. It felt like I was out there for hours like time stopped during this time on the highway but as I turned to look again to my left side to see if it was still there it was traveling away from me towards abilene jumping in differnt directions appearing in one section of the sky and then reappearing in a another part of the sky then it dissappeared completly ...I couldn't see it anymore and I thanked god for what ever this was ...not taking me off the highway and away from my grandbaby.

Report:
At approximately 2030, I went into my backyard to smoke a cigarette. The skies were clear, and the evening was very cool. I looked to the west, and thought I saw an aircraft at altitude, as it flashe red, blue, and white colored lights. The evening was quiet, but I could hear no sound. Further, the object didn't appear to be moving. I changed my position to confirm that the "flashing" wasn't caused by leaves on a nearby tree and stood watching for several more minutes. I then went to the door, and told my 13 year old son to put a jacket on, and come look at something, warning him not to look at any streetlights so as to preserve his night vision. I pointed the object out to him, and asked him what he saw (so as not to "lead" him). He first thought it was an airplane, but then also realized it wasn't moving. He is studying astronomy in school, and suggested it might be a "nova". We watched for a few minutes more, and I asked him to go and get our digital camera. I attempted to take several pictures, but nothing was captured. Several more minutes of watching, and it never seemed to move, not even like a star would set. It was cold, so we decided to go inside, and I would check it later. About 30 minutes later, I went outside and could find no sign of it...not even lower towards the horizon. I plan to go back out tonight at the same time to look for it.

Report:
At approximatley 7:50 p.m. I was traveling north bound on West Lake Houston Parkway in Kingwood, Texas (about 30 miles northeast of Houston, Texas). It was dark, overcast, and had been raining throughout the day. While approaching a stop light I suddenly saw a green light flash across the sky to the north of us. It was not lightening and in some ways it ressembeled the aurora lights in that it lingered for a second and seemed to wave in the sky. As soon as the flash of light happened the stop light that we were appraoching started flashing red extremely quickly, much faster than a normal flashing red traffic signal. I asked my wife if she saw it and she stated that she did not. The light turned green and as we proceeded forward there was another flash of light up in the sky, this time it was orangeish in color. Other than the color the light had the same qualities as the first flash and once again the stop light began flashing quickly. On this second occasion both my wife and I and our 6 year old daughter witnessed the flash. My wife and I agreed that it was unlike anything we had ever seen. Has anyone else reported this?

Report:
I travel for a living and my route takes me down I287. For a couple of weeks around my taking this picture I had noticed numerous sightings but wasn't (freaked out and didn't think of it until later) able to get a picture until the day in question. I didn't remember the exact day. (on a previous encounter I had a hooded "person" outside my bedroom window that I reported previously I think) About two or three weeks later after seeing the clay county event I had something happen while I was asleep. It happened on three occasions and I had an awareness of more recently. (Remembrance) 1. I have two small dogs. The first "dream" I had I saw my dog (5 lb. one) being drug around viciously by a tomcat and I was shocked and couldn't help her because she was too far away. (Fast in & out dream) 2. Second "dream" I see the dog (5 lb. one) closer to me and being attacked by two tomcats and I couldn't separate them so I balled up my fist and raised it up to hit the cat. (Fast in & out dream) 3. Third "dream" my first recollection is being in a state of paralysis and floating through the air with a group of beings, one was an older asian man with a dark jacket (maybe a military garb?). We moved with one accord and I noticed I was dressed very royally. We sat at a round table (like a coffee table) and couches like a pit group. I remember looking (transfixed) at the asian man and I thought we were going to have tea when my smaller (3 lb.) dog was placed in my lap and a knife was placed in my hand. I instinctively knew to do an operation which I started and then noticed that it wasn't going right and freaked out. At that point I got up and started walking away and noticed a large what I thought at the time was a dog like figure walking around "talking" to me. I remember "telling" him as they brought my dog to another room, please don't kill her as they related that they would take care of it from there. The large figure had a very narrow face like a doberman but I now believe it to be a reptilian because I noticed a space between the back like a hole which I believe now was the tail lifted as it walks. It came up to me to take the knife which I was terrified and I gave it the knife. After that I was shown by another creature which I can't describe how to navigate or move from upper level to lower level within the craft. I was shown how to go off the edge of it and down to a lower level and the creature went with me and we chatted (very friendly). When I was asked to do it myself, I couldn't a. it is not intuitive to me to walk off the edge of one area of a height for any reason even if I was just shown this b. one minor thought was that my shoes would come off and I was shown a pair of shoes on me that I wore 30 years ago that strapped around my leg, (and c. why was I being asked to go there? (very fast, after this - was out of the "dream"). with no explanation. I don't believe it was a dream due to the nature of this and the fact that I am a very lucid dreamer. I had nothing going on in my life to indicate a concern about my dogs and stray cats as they are either with me or at home with a dog door that only lets them in and the 3 lb. one thinks she is a doberman and lunges at anything that moves and the 5 lb. one I think wouldn't go without a fight. Also, after this happened about a week ago I wanted very much to remember more about how this happened because I don't like being taken either physically or mentally anywhere for experiments of any kind and remembered my head being pinned down from behind and carefully lifted up by something that was very afraid of me, seems like I opened my eyes momentarily. Also, one a side note, I have a poster print of some art I saw at the Kimball in Fort Worth, TX. and the figures are dressed very royally. 1.(dog picture is the size of my dogs) 2. (picture hard to see but I blew it up on Corel and it looks like some of the images are beyond the ufo image. My husband says it looks like the space station above it) I can send directly from my iphone if I have an email address, thanks.

Report:  
Approximately 4:40 a.m., I got in my car and noticed a brillance of light in the eastern sky, as it tends to be very dark at this time of morning, as I live in rural East Texas. Approximately four minutes later, while driving east on Hwy 175 toward Frankston, TX, a silver disc shaped object came out of the trees and flashed across the sky quite close to the roof of my car and within seconds disappeared into the sky. It happened very quickly. There was no sound. It appeared to be "spinning" as it moved. I have a gut feeling that it was an alien craft; as I've felt there presence in the area. When I saw the craft, I was startled, yet not afraid. I was unable to see the craft as I was driving and it disappeared quickly.

I live on Lake Belton, across from Fort Hood testing (firing) range, (they own that half of lake, we sometimes feel like we live in one of those countries being bombed sometimes). I was watching the aproaching storm, we have a kind of tree top home, all windows, we can see forever because of the height of our home, and we love to watch the storms coming from counties away. I was on the phone with my mother in law in NJ, when all of a sudden I saw 4 of the UFO's before the approaching storm, I started screaming at her that I was seeing them, and how they were appearing and disappearing. Then I realized no one would believe me without pictures, and I found my camera, they were appearing, in a "W" pattern, then 2 would dissapear, then reapear, I have 2 pictures of 2 of them, the other 2 disappeared, one is showing them as crafts with a white light across the hole bottom - then the next picture was amazing to me when I put them on my computer and zoomed in - they look like they were turning- but they appear as 2 little baby lightning bolts, then they disappeared as the storm got here, my husband was driving up Kykendall Mountain road, at the time on his way home from work, and he saw them as well. It was absolutely amazing!!!! I have always believed, but I never thought I would see them, let alone get a picture of them!!! The storm was one of the most amazing I had seen, I have those as well if you need them, with mammatos clouds, and then the sun was setting under the clouds and everything was amazing yellow. I will never forget the feeling, that I knew we were not alone. I watched the History channel last night, there was a series on the area 51, and you were mentioned, and I knew I had to send them to you, and I am happy to have found you. Thank You for taking the time to read this, and look at the pictures.

My wife and I had gone out to dinner and upon returning to our car we saw this very bright object in the north western sky. We stood outside our car for a minute or two wondering what it was and then we got in our car and drove home. We arrived home about 10 minutes later and I got out of the car and looked to see if it was still there. It was still there as it was aparrently not moving. I then ran into the house to get my binoculars and went back outside to try and get a look. I trained the binoculars on the light and was astonished to see that it was triangular shaped with big bright lights at the points. I then decided to go in and get my 8 inch reflecting telescope to try and get a better look. I got my telescope and went into the backyard and I kept an eye on it as I was setting up the scope. I heard my neighbor in his backyard so I drew his attention to it as well. As we watched it, we saw a smaller light leave the main object. From our vantage point, it seemed to drop several feet below the main object and then stop. Then both objects completely faded out and disappeared before I could get my scope trained on them! The whole time I witnessed the main object, it did not seem to be moving at all. The smaller one moved at a steady rate. I can't even guess at the speed of it. I am an avid watcher of UFO Files and UFO hunters. And when I first saw this thing through my binoculars, I immediately recognized it as apparrently one of those flying triangles I had seen on these shows! It was absolutely amazing!!!

My wife and I were in a movie theater parking lot and she noticed an odd light in the sky,no visible stars,moon or anything else around,we watched the lights for a few minutes and I grabbed my binoculars from the glovebox and viewed a upside down triangle of three lights fairly far off,the light became harder to see then a small red light emerged from the bottom and slowly descended then stopped headed back to the original light surpassing it and continuing upward then both lights slowly faded and were no longer visible.I read of a Clovis NM sighting about an hour before this tonight almost the same sighting.Took a picture with my cellphone but its barely visible.No reports on the local news tonight.The sighting lasted about 15-20 minutes.

I had just put a batch of cookies in the oven and set the timer for 10 minutes. I went to put my dog in the backyard, when I opened the door which faces east I noticed a large very bright round light in the sky, it was still daylight. I watched it for a minute then went thru the house to go to the front yard to see if anyone was outside so I could show it to them. The neighbors were just coming out of their house and the three of us watched it for a short time then they had to leave. On my way thru the house I noticed the oven timer still had a little over 3 minutes left. I stood on the back porch to look at it. The oven timer went off, I took the cookies out then went back outside. After a couple of minutes it looked liked it was changing shape, kind of like a blobby circle-ish shape. Then I saw a very small red light on the bottom of it. It was only there for a few seconds, then it dropped off of the big light. As the red light fell down the bright light was getting smaller. I saw the bigger light circle around the small light. Then they both went higher into the sky eastward until I
couldnt see them anymore. It was 6:32 p.m.

Went out into my backyard early in the evening. No moon or stars were visible yet. In the west / northwest sky was a bright triangle / diamond shaped object. At first I might have thought it was a blimp or a balloon. But it sat too still in the sky. It was so still it was almost creepy. It gave me the weirdest feeling. I watched it for what must have been thirty or forty-five minutes and took some pictures and video or my cheap digital camera. I finally went back inside because I had dinner on the stove and I didn't want it to burn, but I kept peaking at it from time to time, and it was just there. Finally about an hour later when it was a little bit dimmer (but still no stars out) I could tell that this object was not just reflecting the sunlight, but was actually glowing, kinda a blue light, kinda like the blue halogen light color like are on some newer cars. Then I noticed a tiny red dot that had dropped below it for a short distance. Then very strangely the triangle slowly faded into a small dot much like the one below it. Then they both slowly just faded and vanished. It's hard to describe. They didn't just fly away or move off into the distance, they just faded off. I actually had a very similar experience to this a few years ago, but didn't have a camera then. In the pictures you can tell the diamond / triangle shape but really can't get much more detail. Sorry, but at least it's something. It amazes me that other people saw the same thing and are describing it in almost the exact same words. How amazing!

Was up briefly, looked out the window, and saw an object moving laterally and diagnolly ever 15 seconds or so. Lights went from blue to white to red. It was not close, it was about the size of a large planet as far as relative size to me. It hovered and moved for at least an hour.It was definitely not a plane or helicopter or blimp. The sky was as clear as I've ever seen; you could see so many stars. There was zero light pollution. My wife saw it as well Has anyone else reported this?

October 1, 2009, 9:28 pm CDT In Amarillo Texas, Latitude 35 N, Longitude 102 W, Elevation 3300?? Moon nearly full at Azimuth 129, Altitude 34. I spotted a very bright, star-like object completely out of place in the constellation Cassiopeia (azimuth 30, altitude 34, magnitude -3). I was surprised and perplexed. Without thinking, I immediately checked my bearings by glancing some 90 degrees to the southeast to confirm that the moon and Jupiter were where I expected them to be. As I looked back to the object I thought that it must be the International Space Station, but quickly decided that it was not because it was completely stationary. There was no flickering or pulsating, but it soon became evident that the object was gradually getting smaller and dimmer. In less than a minute it faded completely away and did not reappear. Apparently a Geostationary (geosynchronous) Satellite flash? I couldn?ft find much on the web about it and so assume that it?fs a fairly rare occurrence. More at http://www.unusualsightings.com/

At about 2020, my husband and I were driving South on 2461, and at approximately 30-50 yards South of the intersecting lights on 570 and 2461, my husband saw a white light that contained some orange color to it, appear and then disappear. It was low to the ground, around maybe 1-2 miles up. It was difficult to determine the distance it was from us. It did not move, only appeared bright and then disapeared. He did not know what the object was, he only knew it was like a star, but much brighter. He asked me if I saw the bright light, and I told him I did not. I asked him if it was a reflection or an airplane, and he said no. After it disappeared, we both continued to look for it, but it did not reappear at that time. I did eventually see an airplane's lights at a much farther and higher distance and mentioned this to him, and we decided it could have been a plane. We arrived home and unloaded shopping bags from our vehicle. I got some books from inside the house and left again. I drove up my driveway, turned to the Southwest and the light appeared very brightly, only once, and again disappeared. To me, this light was a light orange color. It did not appear white to me. I called my husband, who had stayed behind at our home, on my cell phone and told him I saw his light. I continued driving to the LaMancha entrance and stopped, looking in the same direction the orange light had been. At this time, I do not recall if I saw it again or not and my husband does not recall if I mentioned seeing it a second time. I turned right on 570 heading Northeast, followed a curve to the East, Southeast, to cross the dam. At this time, my husband was still on the phone with me and he went outside to look more. As we were talking, 3 orange lights appeared in the East-southeast direction and were lined up horizontally. They remained on for 1-2 seconds and disappeared. We both saw this at the same time. This was closer to just before 2100, approximately 2050-2055. After we saw this, I became very excited, but sort of nervous because I did not know what this was. My husband just told me to deliver the books and get back home. As I drove to deliver the books, we remained on the phone together talking because I was nervous driving alone, and we saw airplane lights that seemed to be watching the area where these lights were. When I got to my destination, I watched momentarily and noticed fast-moving airplane lights and another airplane or helicopter below the 2
fast-moving ones. All of them appeared to be circling the area where the lights had been.

While my wife was driving to store 5601 Amarillo blvd West I ( passenger) noticed a very bright star to the west at the intersection of Avondale and West 9th. When we got to store I pointed it out to my wife. The next night we are at 2530 S Georgia We came out of the store it was 7:20 pm and the car is parked to the south and in the SW sky is the bright star again. We get out the field glasses to get a better look. The man in the truck next to ask what we are looking at. He sees it also and then a few other people notice it in the parking lot too. What we see is a Blue white diamond shape object very bright. In the field glasses it appears to have 4 bright spots going across a line that would be 1/4 down from the top. My wife looks with the field glasses and sees the red sphere dropping from the white line heading to the bottom or point of the object. Other noticed the red sphere as it existed the object and drifted down out of the object. Then the white object
changed it shape to an inverted tear drop and then both red and white objects faded away. Time was about 7:30. The object was still all during our viewing of it.Are feelings in awe of what we had seen. As so were others in the parking lot.

I am a third party to this incident. My friend who wants to remain anonymous caught this footage on his vhs recorder. My friends son was outside in the backyard of thier house and looked up because he saw something strange. My friends son yelled for his dad to come out and see the unknown object in the sky. My friend saw the unknown object and grabbed his vhs recorder and began recording the unknown object which appeared to be in mid air. The unknown object had lights and appeared to be spinning with other parts spinning at different times. At one time in the footage you can see and hear a plane fly by the unknown object. This unknown object did not make a sound. My friend moved to a rural location in manfield, tx where the neighborhood homes were was just being built. My friend was one of around six homes built in the new neighborhood. My friend called me over to his house and I observed the footage and was amazed. I have never seen whatever it is ever in my life.

I was finishing my lunch at Boston Market off of Westhiemer/Hilcroft. I was on my way back to the office, but I happened to look up and saw a black object that seemed to hover below the cloud cover at about the same altitude that helicopters fly. The object seemed to move in a North Western direction until it seemed to move straight up over the period of about 3 minutes, and it penetrated the cloud cover until it was out of sight. I had to get back to my office on Stoney Brook and the Westpark tollway by 1:30PM, so I didn't get to stick around to watch for it further.

My morning walk and pray'r time, stepp'd outside to the first clear morning in so many days. The stars were bright, constellations clear and present. No moon visible. Look'd up and noticed the Big Dipper to the North -- as I look'd into the top right of the constellation I noted a blimp of bright light exiting the confines of the dipper and proceed to the East. It was momentary but traveling and then disappear'd. There were no clouds nor haze. Then I turn'd to walk south and headed toward an open area, I could see Orion clearly, also Sirius, the Dog constellation and the Dog Star. From the tip top of Sirius the Dog Star came a pinpoint of bullet like traveling star moving toward the North-east rapidly. I watched it for about 40 seconds and it disappear'd. Lastly, as I gazed into the sky a shooting fireball fell between Orion's outstretched left arm and the Sirius Dog star.

Some friends and I saw star-gazing at their home-we saw an unusually bright star-like object moving towards the moon-it stopped completely-then reversed itself-then it moved very erratically in the sky for a few minutes. My friends and I were astounded and completely shocked and in disbelief because of it's movements-especially the way it stopped and reversed.It then disappeared completely.

Reporting this for others who may have heard this as well:First, i live in Tomball, which is a NW burb. of Houston. I was watching a Film i TIVO'ed ,this was in the early am range,3:00am- we were all in Bed-being my Husband,myself and 3 Dogs.Husband was sound asleep. My younger Dog decided to go outside- i heard her lift the Dog Door and go out; but seconds later i heard her Bark and run back inside. Our Bedroom and Dining area -where the back porch door/dog door is- are side by side.So 20ft. away -no problem with hearing her at all. She came and got back into bed but kept looking at the window - i figured she was seeing the reflection of the TV in the glass-which often gets her attention. The one Blind closest to me was closed- the other Blind was turned open.This is a huge double window facing our back yard. She finally put her head down and slept.The other two Dogs slept on,they never stirred. About 15 minutes later - i heard a rumbling, deep sound in the distance.It caught my attention enough that i paused the Movie to better listen.It was coming from what seemed to be the North/North West -and getting closer and louder. The sound was much like the rumble of air conditioning when it kicks on.Our unit was not on. It was a very cool and comfortable night - I listened and noticed it getting closer and closer -and thinking that is no Plane or Helicopter -so what the hell is it ?? I was surrounded by the Dogs and couldnt easily get out of bed and the sound was starting to scare me! So i just laid there and listened to it go over.It was all sound; there was no vibration of the House. It sounded like it was flying low. Our backyard faces South -the Airports are to the immediate East and South/East of where we live.I watched through the Blind that was open,which would give me a view of it heading anywhere east- to see if i could see it pass -try to see the identifying lights- but it must have stayed on a direct course South -or South/West -because i never saw it head the other direction. I just listened to it go away.

My husband and I were sitting outside after dark in our spa relaxing after a long week. We were chatting when my husband says "do you see that?" I said what? He says "a big black triangle, its moving pretty fast." I am trying to follow where he his pointing and I am thinking to myself that I dont hear anything. He is pointing almost straight up but toward the SSE which is towards the water (Galveston Bay). I mention that I cant see it and then he says "it's gone." I said "what was it?" He said "it must be a new stealth plane although it was bigger." He said he noticed it because, as it was flying, it created a distortion in the air around it, much like the heat distortion one sees on the roadway on a hot summer day. Now, we live near Ellington Field (an old air base) and NASA JSC. We see and hear lots of different types of planes all the time so i know he has a pretty good frame of reference. So we tell ourselves it must have come from Ellington. Well just the other day I was watching tv and came across a show about ufo's. They started to describe flying black triangles. I recorded the show and then asked my husband to watch it. He said that what he saw was very similar but there were no lights. After reading more and finding out that these sightings are very common, I decided to write this report. BTW, we are not "ufo nuts", we are educated (chemist and engineer) middle class people who lead very average lives. In summary: Large black triangle, no lights, no sound, with distortion of the air around it (shimmering). Moving very fast.

My husband and I were camping in Big Thicket on the Turkey Creek Trail. We were laying on the ground looking up into the sky while there was plenty of daylight left. There were no clouds in the sky so we could see very clearly. As we were looking up we saw a red neon boomerang appear and disappear maybe 5 times in a southern direction. It was traveling from the North. We were on the southern half of the trail a couple miles shy of the halfway mark. I have no idea what it was but I know that I have never seen anything like it.

In the late evening hours roughly 1 hour before sunset I was walking from my house to my car. Looking up above the treeline toward the east I saw a DC-10 Passenger jet. Strangely tho she was solid black with no running lights and no identifiable markings. Her distance from me was about 1/4 mile and alt about 300 to 400ft. Unsettling truth she was at standard cruising speed about 220-250 knots and she made absolutely no noise. I find the silence unsettling because i was a submariner sonar technician for the U.S. Navy and have been trained to hear what can easily be missed. The aircraft was traveling WNW through an area riddled with cell and base station towers most towers 300 to 600ft tall and a few 1500ft+ with guide lines for stability. New stealth tech for military? Smuggling? Private Enterprise? These people had an intimate knowledge of the areas infrastructure. I felt the persons onboard saw me and that I was not supposed to have seen them. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up, not in fear, but anticipation for an upcoming confrontation with officials who would like to keep this event secret. I lost sight of the aircraft as it passed beyond the western treeline.

I have written to this site a couple of time describing the encounters that I have had with other-worldly beings and since my last sighting I have seen nothing. To touch on my first encounter again, the first time I encountered an unexplained being I remember being brought aboard their craft. Many years later I noticed an object in my bottom lip that felt hard to the touch. Years after that, my dentist noticed the object in an x-ray and was later unable to identify the object. Last night's incident was unbelievable, even by my standards. I was asleep Monday night at about 10:30 P.M. in my living room. I awoke at around 2:00 A.M. to move to my bedroom. Then I seem to have a dream of standing in front of a crowd of people and teaching them something I cannot remember. Then I awoke on the floor of my room late for work, disoriented, and wet. The strangest thing is that my mother who sleeps across the hall from me had a similar dream and woke up in the same manner. Whether or not people in this world believe in such circumstances is something left up to the mind of the individual, however I have gone through a life of encounters. I have proof hidden in my lower lip. I was told and taught something, I just wish I could remember what. There is no memory of an object or beings, only the strange environment and the lapse in time. I felt at peace. I was happy. I was a leader in this group. The truth will come out. I am tired of forgetting these events!

I'm on my back porch very often in the mornings and have been at this location for 4 years. Normal air traffic consist of low flying helicopters from Fort Hood and an occasional plane on landing pattern for airport at Killeen, TX. The air space around my area is restricted because of the Fort Hood military base and George Bush's ranch down the road so normally only military craft are in the location where I saw this event. The sun was coming up but it was still dark enough to see a few stars, expesially the Bright star in the East. Something extremely bright was traveling from North West of me toward the South East at a strange pace. Due to the brightness and speed of the object, it made it hard for me to determine what type of craft it was. I never heard any sounds that one would normally hear when air traffic is around. I knew it was out of the ordinary at first but when it completely disappeared, I knew something was different. After about one minute of watching this object, it vanished. I searched the sky for another few minutes in the direction it was heading without successfully locating it again.

I have always been completely fascinated by the sky in all it's celestial wonder. Not because of the many infinite and unexplained phenomena and mysteries that it beholds but because in my opinion it is the most beautiful form of live art.This is where I most vehemently see and feel God...in nature. The clouds, the sunsets, sunrises, everything about the sky completely enthralls and captivates me. I am a very scientific person and also a very, very spiritual person. I am skeptical about things such as UFO's, ghosts, spirits, aliens, and anything that I cannot see or feel for myself. I have always said, it's not that I don't believe, I am very open minded but I need to see things like this for myself in order to truly believe. This is why this occasion just leaves me speechless. I don't know how to explain what I saw. But I SAW IT. My fiance and I were driving from our place to visit our parents near Stafford driving down Beltway 8 south and approaching the Gessner exit when I was merely looking out of my fiance's window up at the clouds in the sky. He was driving, I was in the passenger seat. The sun was setting at the time so it was still bright out but not so bright that a very brilliant light in the sky could've been overlooked. That is exactly what I saw. I saw a round, incredibly bright, bright light that seemed to be moving with the car. I knew right away it wasn't a plane or any other type of machine of that nature. I just felt that it was something....different....something I couldn't quite put my finger on. It was ....it just was. It wasn't the typical UFO sighting I've heard about or even the kind we see in movies. There was no actual tangible object I was looking at. It was just a very bright light. And I would've not been the least bit suspicious of said light except that I asked my fiance if he could see it too. So he turned his head in that direction and was able to witness it as well but only for a few seconds as he had to concentrate on the road. So I continued to stare at it, and it seemed almost immediately after I mentioned it to my fiance and he saw it, well, this is what happened next. As I stared at the light it seemed to get bigger and brighter and then it seemed to be moving away rapidly because it got smaller, then smaller, then just zoomed away instantaneously and disappeared. I watched the whole thing happen right before my eyes. I was the president of the astronomy club in college, I know what stars look like, what planets look like, I can tell you almost every single celestial phenomena involving clouds and actual scientific celestial things I can tell you what the airplane towers look like, I HAVE NEVER IN MY ENTIRE LIFE SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS!!! I know I didn't imagine it although sometimes I wonder if it would be better to believe that. I don't know to explain what I saw or even try to make sense of it, all I know is that I saw something. I don't know why, but I did. And I have to be honest, although I have no clue what it was it's not something one can easily forget. It gave me a whole new perspective on the place I already called home and couldn't wait to get back to, the stars, the world above and beyond us. I've always thought this universe and it's infinite vastness was just too big for us to be alone but what I saw that night, well maybe it's just a little firmer tug on my heartstrings. Maybe it was just the confirmation I needed.

we see ufos any time we want we just go to a location where we see them and they are there all shapes and sizes.  We go to a place and we can see objects flying in all different directions at high rates of speed, and at ultra high altitude, at any time of the year. These objects disappear, re-appear, and flash. My wife and daughter saw an oval shaped object flying over the navy base without making any noise, the day after 9/11. we wer at the beach sitting in loungers looking up some objects were space debri obviously but some were not we were excited to cee thede things and went back many times to see them

I am reporting this due to Gabe Spencers report. In 1984 I was living on the ranch we own in Mc Mullen county. I was outside on the deck of our home when I looked up and saw an orange orb. It was very large and self illuminating. It resembled the moon but smaller and closer. I froze. I did not feel any malintent from it. It remained stationary in the sky and made no sound. My parents were in the house and I wanted to let them know, but could not take my eyes off of it to go inside and tell them. I watched it for what seemed like and eternity, but appoximately 5 min and it just vanished. I have checked with MUFON over the years to see if anyone has reported something simular, but something told me to check in early August. After reading Mr. Spencers report I believe we saw the same thing, 25yrs apart. I have also found another report on MUFON that is simular. It is also around the same time as my sighting. MUFON may contact me, but I wish to remain anonymous.
