Transparent V-shaped Objects Over Plano, Texas
*
Plano witness observes two boomerang shaped objects.
MUFON Case # 32763
Date: 2011-10-20
Time: 23:00
Status: Assigned
City: Plano
State: Texas
Shape: Boomerang
Distance: 500 feet or less
Summary: Gliding V shaped objects, no lights, no sounds, mist around them
Report:
I was exiting my car last night, Oct 20th, at approx. 11 pm when something caught the corner of my eye up in the sky. I looked up to see a V-shaped object that was silently gliding fairly slowly across the sky. It went out of my view so I changed locations only to see it make a large circle and then head back north. It was in sight for approximately 30 seconds then moved out of view completely and about that time a smaller object of the same shape and opacity shot from the south heading north behind it.
At first I thought it looked like a flock of birds then realized that it was too perfect and when it circled around I got a better view. There were no lights and no sound. The objects were almost transparent, foggy kind of like a cloud but in a V shape and glided very eloquently and smoothly.
I have never seen anything other than normal meteorites in the night sky. I was very excited yet perplexed. I do feel validated though when I read on the Examiner that there was another sighting extremely similar just a few miles away from me and only 30 minutes prior to my sighting last night.

I am in Carrollton (the next town over from Plano and an avid skywatcher. I've never seen anything that makes me a believer in UFO's but I constantly look and hope to catch something some day. I would have LOVED to have seen this event and I am happy to know a sighting has occurred nearby. Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteOn Friday, October 21st, 2011, I saw something similar to what you saw. I live just Northeast of downtown Dallas.
ReplyDeleteIt was ~8:50 PM CDT when I took my dog to go out to go to the bathroom. I was looking at the stars out towards south-southwest while waiting for my eyes to adjust so I could see the fainter stars and figure which star was which and the constellations for Pisces and Aquarius....I thought I'd attempt, although possibly futile due to location, to take a picture of Uranus.
My eyes finally start to adjust, then to my disappointment, some club turned on a spot-light! I looked in the direction of the beam of light pollution, and when it lit up the sky in my vicinity, I noticed a very slight refraction of the light; there was a diffuse low layer of cloud-cover or some fog trying to form. I could still see bright stars through the layer, but something as faint as Uranus would be impossible!
Being really upset that light pollution and transient moisture would ruin any pictures of anything in the night sky, I looked towards the West to see how extensive the fog/cloud was, and in my peripheral vision, I see something around helicopter altitude that is light in color. I immediately turn my focus to it, and it had a crescent/boomerang shape to it, no lights or sound, and was slow-moving. I blinked my eyes several times thinking that there was debris in my eye or something, looked back where I last spotted it, and it had drifted a little more towards the northeast...
My mind is going through every last possibility of what it could be: a HUGE bird, but with no body?; a drone plane, but why in the HELL would there be one flying around downtown?; toilet paper...that fell out of a plane and caught some thermal?!?!
As I watched it drift northeasterly, the boomerang was dynamic in shape; the best comparison I have is that it reacted similar to water hitting the hull of a moving boat.
So, I'm standing there with my eyes WIDE open and slack-jawed, and it seemed to stop moving in the original direction, and appeared as though it was gonna head in MY direction (southeast)...that triggered a "fight or flight" response like no other!! BUT, it went in a northwesterly direction and went out of sight....I said, "M'kay....I'll be going in now....." in a calm yet freaked out, nervous manner.
I realized I left my dog outside later that night LOL!! She's fine by the way.
We saw the same object on the 20 April 2010 and again 28 March 2012. We live in Johannesburg, South Africa.
ReplyDeleteI live in East Dallas & on Saturday, Oct.20, 2012
ReplyDeleteMyself,My SON & My friend saw the exact same thing moving thru the sky... My friend actually thought it was birds at first as well, but we were quickly realizing what we were seeing wasnt from this world...l
seen same object. vancouver b.c. langley
ReplyDeletei saw the same object in July 2009 in Mazatlan Mexico, cant remember the exact date but it was July. My city is very hot in summer, that day, around 2 am we lost electricity for some period of time, so i went to my backyard, because we cant stay in the room without A/C and when i sat and turned my head to the sky i saw something moving, but hard to see, so just like "Rubycat" i blinked my eyes several times tryin to adjust my vision, but the V object in fact was there flying in southeast direction, but slow like an airplane when is landing, with no sound, really HUGE, and the weirdest thing is that i can say it was transparent or made it with some transparent material like glass or plastic because i was able to see the stars behind the V object but with some kind of distort... i think this object must be human but not showed in public yet... btw, nice to find people who saw the same, so i was not imaging things after all.. haha
ReplyDeleteEl Paso, Texas 04/01/2013 around 4:50-5:00am just an or two away from white sands missile range, new Mexico. It was the size of a soccer field and a half if not bigger...flying as low as the street lights on the freeway here...could've chucked a rock at it and hit it if I had a pitcher's arm n good aim...was practically coasting through the sky.. looked like a sting ray just gliding through water except without the fluttery movements...if I wasn't freaked out n frozen still where I stand I could've followed it by speed walking. Speed walking!!! Thats how slow it was going...I don't know what I saw but what I do know is exactly what it looked like and everything that it wasn't.
ReplyDeleteIf possible, could you email me with a few more details? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI saw the same thing in the sky last night around midnight oct 4th 2013 at a friends house in St. Petersburg Florida. I was looking up at orions belt when I saw the v shaped object heading South. It appeared to be cloud like in color. Not a sound nor lights. I called to my friend to look up and he just caught a glimpse at the last moment.
ReplyDeleteI saw the same Craft on 10/10/13 at 2:33 am. It was clearly defined in shape , but wit a semi transparant look. It was apx 2000 ft and moving toward the south very fast . No sound or lights.
ReplyDeleteI saw the same craft last night at bout 3 am. (May 4, 2014) just looked up randomly and kinda tripped me out, it looked like a bird but as it headed north it came clearer that it was no bird. Never seen anything like it. (Carson, CA)
ReplyDeleteI saw this with my friend in hungary SZEGED city, outside.. it was heading east, and it faded away.. (same thing.. did the google search.. thats how I got here..)
ReplyDeleteThis is exactly what i saw. Im visiting corpus christi, tx and tonight at around 9:00 - 9:10 i was awe struck as i saw an object just as you described slowly gliding over my aunts house. There were no lights on it, and there wasnt a single sound coming from it. I only saw the object because it would block out the stars as it moved along the sky. At first i thought, "well maybe it's a glider, or a parachute" but that is very unlikely because it is night time.
ReplyDeleteThank you all for the comments and your own experiences. It seems these sightings are becoming more frequent.
ReplyDeleteRemember, if you see anything, please report it. We might soon all have our answers!
My wife and I saw something very similar to this in the Florida Keys on 10/16/15 at approx. 2AM. We have a rooftop deck on a home in Marathon, Florida, and as we went up my wife said to me, 'what in the h*** is that?" I looked up to see a V shaped translucent object moving across the sky at what appeared to me to be a very high rate of speed, much greater than any aircraft. I also noticed 5 very faint blue or purple lights within the V shape. My wife's account is very much like mine, although she didn't see the lights. When she described the translucency of the object as similar to the movie "Predator", I laughed because I had the exact same thought. We're both still a little freaked out, we can't seem to get our heads around what we saw. I'm not A UFO believer, or a paranormal guy, don't believe in ghosts, etc, but I'm very perplexed by that night's event.
ReplyDelete11/5/2015 Iowa, 8:45pm. Seen exact same thing! Still shocked it's unlike anything I've ever seen...
ReplyDeleteI saw the same thing last night about 10 pm. Out with the dogs and I'm always looking at the stars. It floated from south to north and there was no sound. I live about 50 miles north of Chicago. Cloudless sky so I could see stars through the body of the craft. Glad to know I'm not alone!
ReplyDeleteAwesome comments, people! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteMe and my wife saw this just now. Pretoria south africa. 28 april 2016. No lights no sound. Some kind of patern all over the shape.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your confirmation, that these objects are seen all over the world.
ReplyDeleteHi Sunny. My name is Illana Hanekom. I am the wife of Ben Hanekom who posted on April 28 2016. I have been looking at a lot of footage on the web to try and find the exact flying object that we saw. I found it on YouTube under the following: Name of video: Stunning OFF-WORLD Alien Ship Captured By Father & Son! Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQNvkJPigiQ . The patterns at the bottom looked exactly the close-up on this video. The front end of the craft was also more curved like in this video, but the rear end looks just like a boomerang. It was completely dark when we saw it though - I guess that's why a lot of people describes it as kind of transparent. I think it was designed to look "transparent"? Let me tell you one thing, we were the LAST people to believe in any of this UFO and alien sightings, BUT NOW I SAW IT WITH MY OWN EYES AND MY HUSBAND SAW IT TOO!!! Boy, that kinda changes a person's perspective on these things!!! I will NEVER doubt any person about seeing weird things again!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the confirmation on your husband's sighting and the link to the video.
ReplyDeleteJust made it home 2am Tarpon Springs FL exited my vehicle and looked up just in perfect timing (or was it?) I witnessed this translucent object almost like the color of the clouds gilding quickly and silently over my head the wingspan certainly wider than my home. I lost visual in a matter of seconds =(
ReplyDeleteThank you, Michael. If you see it again, or anything else unusual, please let me know.
DeleteSaw a similar sighting November 14, 2016 in Forney Tx. My boyfriend and I were outside, talking when he noticed a something in the sky. And he pointed it out to me, it appeared to be of a "boomerang" shap, transparent in color, gliding through the sky very silently, it seemed to be being followed by what looked like a helicopter, they were both going in the same direction, South East.
ReplyDeleteThank you "Unknown", for the report.
ReplyDeleteMy friend and I just saw the same thing tonight at about 11pm Nov, 19th 2016 in Southwest Missouri. We were looking at the stars when we saw what appeared to be a giant bird formation but then we realized it was completely silent and seemed to be gliding very slowly and was not a bird formation. It moved from the north to the south and seemed like a white transparent boomerang. Not exactly a v but more rounded.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the report, Riley. It's shape is interesting, different.
DeleteToday december 2 2016 i was looking the night sky with my friend when this object caught my attention. At first I thought it could be a big bird, because I noticed it was flying like 300 metters above us. But then I saw its V shape and heard the sound of "a flag being moved through old air" like. It sound like if a plane was just falling down. And it casted a shadow/debris/distortion in back of its trajectory.
ReplyDeleteThis was in Hidalgo, México. In Tula (also known for having archeological evidence of Tolteca Culture) the object was moving from West to east
Thank you very much, Juan. That is very interesting information and an unusual sighting. Feel free to contact me with any other sighting you might have.

Thanks Brian

ReplyDeleteSaw the same object moving fast over Jacksonville NC. I too thought it was a flock of geese but as I watched it I realized it was a transparent boomerang shape object.. Couldn't tell the size as I didn't know the distance it was from me but it was very odd and have me a creepy feeling seeing it.
I saw this exact object on September 11, 2012 in Naples, Florida and reported the object to Mufon. The only way you can really see this object is to be in the right position to catch a trailing edge of the Boomerang-shaped object. The front end of the craft appears to twinkle like the stars behind it. It has no sound and glides through the air. The most amazing thing about my experience is that the craft made a second pass over my head. At that point this huge craft segued into 3 identical craft that were smaller than the original craft right in front of my eyes. Imagine watching one huge object drift overhead and while watching the object it dissolves into three identical objects. It would make one final pass over my head that evening. It was a life changing experience. I look for the object nightly and now carry a video camera to capture the image but I'm not sure it will work even if I am able to film it. The object was able to cloak itself to mimic the sky behind it.
ReplyDeleteOk, so I have never publicly wrote about what I saw because I was too afraid to for mental reasons. Most of us can agree what people think when we describe this object is crazy.
ReplyDeleteIt was November 2012 in Eureka, MO. I was working security for a well known entertainment company. It was a pleasant night. I figured it was going to be one of the last good nights before the cold sets in. So while working as a security officer I decided to head out on foot on the property, get a office chair to lounge back to watch the sky. I was more less star gazing than looking for unknown objects. I pulled this chair out of the office and started gazing for about 15 minutes when I seen it.
The sky was partly cloudy. The clouds were more spread out and were thin high laying clouds. The clouds were thin enough you could see the brighter stars behind them. This object appeared and was moving from north to south. It had a straight flight path and seemed to move consistently. It was not moving slow enough to keep up with the object but appeared to have been moving at the speed of a commercial airliner. It appeared to be very large but was at the same level as the clouds so I could not gauge the actual size. The object resembled a carpenters square more than anything else. It looked like it had straight lines to the shape and had crisp edges. It was silent, never heard a sound when this object passed over. Nor any exhaust you would be familiar seeing from any ordinary jet. The object was see through. It almost disappeared in the dark sky but I was able to see stars behind it. To describe it as being a cloudy appearance would be more accurate. I think I got lucky seeing it because the moonlight lite up the clouds as I saw it after it passed between the clouds. It was not lit. Not a single light. The object came into view and out of view before moving out of my field of view as if there was only one angle I could view it from, directly overhead.
This sighting disturbed me. Instantly I got up, told the office over the radio that I just seen a UFO and that I am heading back to the office for the rest of the night. I know I said that over the radio for my own wits. I went directly online and googled "triangle boomerang ufo" went to the images and seen your artists rendition. Reading your article was as if I wrote it word for word. I have only just recently started talking about it after describing what I seen to a UFO enthusiast. This person was in aww and jelious of what I described. He said he would give anything to have seen it. I told him I wish I hadn't because you just can't come to realization to what I had witnessed. It's something I can't forget.
I still don't know what I had seen. I hope its military. In Missouri we have the stealth bombers but I have seen them before sporting events and they are loud. Definitely not the same shape either. My last thought is not from this world and my unique experience is comforting after reading the article and replied. I never seen anything like it since.
Omg yes! I have seen a similar thing! The object I saw was a rounded boomerang type of shape and it was really kate at night super clear sky lots of stars and this figure passes by but it was totally see through... We could definitely see a shape there but we could see through it and the stars through it.. And then shortly after that smaller ones of the sane thing passed in the same,direction. No sound, no lights, no exhaust. Just invisible objects moving through the sky..
DeleteI just saw this object on August 12, 2017 at Coachella, California. Came outside with my parents to see the shooting stars when I noticed this object. At first I thought it was a shooting star with no "light" but it didn't disappear like shooting stars are supposed to do. Parents assumed that it was just a flock of birds but it was going way too fast and was way to perfectly shaped. We are just glad that we aren't the only ones who saw this.
ReplyDeleteIn Oregon ive seen somethings similar to these sightings. My brother and I were laying on sleeping on the trampoline outside one night, it was very late and as we were just looking at the stars we saw this figure slowly gliding through the sky, it was like a boomerang shape a bit more rounded but it was completely see through. Imwe could see the shape of it and could tell something was there moving through the sky but we could see through the figure at the stars on the other side of it.. Sounds crazy I know but we both saw it and then after that we saw a couple smaller ones going the same direction after the big one we saw. I've never been able to explain what it was, and everyone I tell this story to says " how could you see it if it was see through and clear?" "How coukd you see it if it was basically invisible?" Yeah I know.. its hard to explain.
