Appearance / Description of Object(s)

This highly reflective object was quite large easily being over 100 feet wide. It was a cigar shape but more oval on the sides than round, being maybe 20 feet in diameter and it had spere in the middle of it protruding from the center top. The spere was more a dome on top of the body and was maybe a third of width longwise of this ship. Picture a small ball cut in half placed placed on the top center of a semi smushed cigar but all dark polished mirror surface. I could see that it was made of sections that if separated would have evenly divided the it lengthwise into four or five sections. It had no lights whatsoever or at least they were not lit and it made absolutely no sound and it moved in a perfect straight line and traveled side ways meaning the long side of the body moved forward with the dome sitting on top so there were no visible moving parts, it was solid and looked solid and clean.

Size of Object(s)

If I stretched out my arm it would be 6 inches to hold in the view of my widespread fingers. I would have to estimate the length of this cigar shaped ship to be no less than 100 ft wide, and with an oval cross section of 30 feet wide by 20 feet high with a round half dome of about 30 ft. in diameter sitting on the top and in the middle of it.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

It was flying as high as I see helicopters fly by. 400' to 600' plus or minus

Description of Area / Surroundings

We live in suburban town right outside of Houston so while on certain night we have clear skies we are limited somewhat by the light pollution that reflects off the sky. This particular night it was hazy, cool and somewhat windy. Certain bright stars could still be seen throught the hazy sky, however there were no clouds. There are now military bases that I'm aware of in this area (Zip Code 77459) only a small airport around 5 miles away which serves Sugar Land mainly for small and private aircraft. It did seem to be moving parallel with a some large powerlines that maybe a mile from our home.

Full Description & Details

The weather had been warm and humid throught most of the month of October so when the cool front finally came into our suburb town of Missouri City, located just southwest of Houston, my wife asked me to come outside to our patio to just sit and enjoy the much awaited cool breeze. Well cool it was, somewhere in the upper '60's and breezy just enough to make the tree tops sway so all that could be heard was the wind passing through the leaves. The skies were hazy, but not cloudy almost a medium grey tone. This of course is a result from local light pollution reflecting on our skies. A couple dozen or so stars managed to shine through this haze anyhow. Well we were talking face to face and our patio is open to one end almost in the shape of a U so my right side was facing the open end. Well I was about the comment on something when out of my right peripheral vision up in the sky at about I spotted something moving so naturally I turned to see it. I sprang to my feet out of astonishment in what I was seeing. It was an object, a ship like I had never seen passing throught the night sky almost directly over my adjacent neighors back yard only it was maybe four or six hundred feet high but was of a good size. Immediately I ran to the middle of our backyard dragging my wife by her arm hardly being able to speak I cried to her to look at up at the sky and bare witness to what I'm seeing here, I pointed at it! It was moving in a perfectly straight heading in a southerly direction and moving slowly, ominously and without any noise nor any lights, it was almost invisible, nearly cloked but since I caught its movement I was able to focus on it and clearly see it's shape and what its surface looked like. Had it not been for the ambient lighting of city light pollution and the grey lit sky serving as a backdrop I might have missed it since it's surface appeared to be reflective, a mirrored surface but a dark polished mirrored chrome which reflected everything around it including the grey sky and lights off the ground. I saw it clearly for what seemed a long time but infact was more like 15 to 20 seconds. It was utterly fantastic and some what frightening to witness this. I could hardly believe it was happening and I was there at the right time. However much to my disappointment it went beyond the tree line in our backyard before my wife could see it as well but. Well we ran through our home to the front to hopefully get a second glimpse of this slow moving object but we were unable to spot again.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

The shape of this flying object was one like I have never seen before. I've seen many military experimental craft and am a Sci-fi fan but not even in any movies have I seen such a shape. It was running under power as it took a steady course flying at an even altitude and maybe traveling 100 mph or less. It was moving slowy but steadily and was almost unoticable if you didnt catch its movement. Think Predator from the movie, you can see the outline and that it reflects it's environment, practically cloaked. Just amazing in size.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I'm 39 years old and as a youth always dreamt of journey's to the stars in make believe of course. I've been a Star Wars fan since youth so yes I looked up many nights wonder what is out there. Through out my life I witnessed maybe one other time what seemed to be lights that seemed to dance across the dark sky but they were too high an altitude see other than what looked like bright stars zipping back and fourth. There were three of them and they traveled back and fourth like no airplane could and finally just zipped off in separate directions. I was a young teenager when I saw these walking home one night while looking up at the heavens. I never saw them again, only in dreams of course but who doesn't. I'm not one to dismiss the possibility of UFO's and I am intrigued by the whole notion but I have never really seen something so amazing real with my own two eyes. I believe there many things with no explanation but I'm a rational average man with a family. I would like to see it again but since that night a few days ago have not had any luck. I am fortunate to have witnessed this and would like to know if any one else might have seen this particular shaped flying object. I have a sketch I drew up the very next day and would be happy to scan it and send it to you. Thanks for your time

Full Description & Details

My Girlfriend and her brother and his girlfriend and myself, (4 people in all), were out on a double-date and it was getting late, about 1:00 a.m. in the morning. We were out on a lonely country dirt road with hardly any traffic and there were open , fenced pastures on both sides of the road with very few trees around us. We had just pulled over to talk awhile about the country band we were in at the time and other things when all of a sudden, something caught my attention out of the corner of my eye and when I turned my head from the direction of my girlfriend to look through the windshield, I witnessed a round orange red ball or globe, which looked solid, rising up from below the horizon slowly and stopping right next to the full moon at about the lower left hand corner of the moon, which, itself was just above the horizon.

Judging from the distance it seemed to be from the moon and from the earth, this thing must have been gigantic in size, a mother-ship, if you will. If it was truly next to the moon, it looked to be at least 1/10th the size of the moon.

I regret that we did not have a camera with us that night, but there were 4 of us that all agreed that we each saw the same identical thing that night. (No Alcohol was involved).

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

We all 4 agreed to this: This object did not come from this planet with our limited technologies. We could not make anything that tremendous in size and then break it loose from the earth's gravitational pull ! Uless we had some kind of anti-gravity device on board.

I just sort of thought of them as maybe the government might be experimenting with new types of aircraft or something of that nature. I just read a little about them and also visited the u.f.o. museum in Roswell, New Mexico.

I was outside reading,when I saw a strange silver object in the sky.I thought it might be an airplane so I ran inside,grabbed my trusty binoculars and my Aircraft Identification Book,I am an aircraft enthusiast,and looked at the object while thumbing through my Aircraft Identifcation Book to see if it was in there.To my surprise,I noticed that the craft was at the same hight as a few jetliners I have observed that left behind contrails.This craft did not,indeed,it was going verrrry slowwwwly and making no sharp manuvers.I also noticed that the craft had a circular,disk-type,shape and it did not make a sound.Then I saw a triangular shaped object following the disk.A neighbor came down to drop off a package for my parents,so I pointed out the craft to them.They were also perplexed at the objects.They left and I observed the objects for about 10 to 15 minutes more and then they were out of sight.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

No,because I know the shapes of fighter planes and commercial planes,and these objects didn't look a thing like them

Hard to say with the light conditions. It was not the usual disc shape, more sharp sides. (again, I keep wanting say cubed shaped). The light following closely to the object was about the same size as the brightest star in the night sky

Size of Object(s)

Relative - 1/2 inch. Actual - 15 foot

It flew directly over our heads but I have no idea of the altitude.

In the middle of an Industrial park (Offices,factorys etc) There is a main power station about 200 m from my work. The object was moving west of the power station

Full Description & Details

I was working the graveyard shift at work with a fellow collegue. At approx 3 am, we both went for a smoke break when I happened to notice a shape (object) in the corner of my eye. Of course, it was dark but the object was quite low to the horizon (below the clouds) It was moving very rapidly. I couldnt make out the exact shape, but it was deffinately a "solid" object. (It looked almost cubed shaped but I cant be sure) The most unusual thing was the strange "light" that "buzzed" around the solid object. The light seemed to jump from one point to another in the blink of an eye but always staying very close to the solid object. There was NO noise what-so-ever and it took approx 15 sec from my first sight to the object getting to far away to see.

Of course, both me and my friend looked at each other and said "did you see that or was I imagining it"!!

Needless to say we were the laughing stock at work the next day but we both know what we witnessed!!

It makes me chuckle to think that if there was intelligent life looking down on us two at the same time they would have seen two shocked men with ciggarettes hanging from our bottom lip looking dumbstruck!! "No intelligent life here" they will say!!!

Full Description & Details

My father and I were coon hunting which was popular at that time and place. It was at night approximately three miles east of Dunbar, VA. We were walking along the railroad tracks and down from this mountain came several balls of different colored lights with a little red one bringing up the rear. They were all round and going from large to small with the large ones in the front leading the way. They had no source that I could acertain. It seemed that they were their own source of light. They were not three dimensional and did not travel in a straight line. They moved down the mountain, then down the river and back up the other mountain. They made no sound. Whoever came up with those lights in that movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind must have seen the same thing before. It was exactly like that. Very strange and I've pondered on that often but can come up with no explanation.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I have always been a skeptic, at least in the sense that they are extraterrestial in orgin, owing to the distance factor and the exact speed of light. That makes it kinda difficult to think that they could have come from another solar system. The best I can come up with is that maybe it's something from another dimension but I have trouble even conceiving anything like that. All I know is that I DID see them and I cannnot explain it.

Account of the Sighting - I was walking my dog late at night in June cannot remeber exact date. I was walking toward the entrance of my street when i saw in a south direction a Light Ball coming toward me it was far away from my location I looked at it and thought it was just a helicopter because we do sometimes get many helicopters in my area I did not take much notice of it. I then got to the entrance of my street the light was getting closer the motion of the light was very slow but i noticed something that ruled out the possibillity of it being a helicopter because there was no sound and its not normal for helicopters to be silent. I carried on going down my street and just looked on at the craft coming towards me i got to the house and the light was nearly to my location i put the dog in my house and looked up at the object at this time i knew i had to do something so i went inside very quickly and got my camera on the way to get my camera i alerted my parents and said there was a UFO i don't think they heard me i said it so quick. I rushed out and the light was above my house and as i took a picture the object blasted downwards and left a small light trail. I went back inside and my parents were still downstairs (my house has two floors but you enter the top floor first and then as you go in there are stairs going down). I asked my parents to come and take a look at my picture and were amazed at what was on the picture i have enclosed the picture of the light its a really good close up picture and you can really see what i saw was so strange.
