  • When: October 27th, 2015
  • Where: Dripping Springs
  • ​Where: Moving light, shooting off lights when viewed through telescope

Texas UFO Sightings reader Travis witnessed a bright, peculiar light both hovering and moving in the nighttime sky. When viewed through a telescope, the object appeared to be changing colors and giving off flashes and/or sparks of light!

Check out photo and testimony below, kindly submitted to the site:

On 10/27-2015 I looked out my back window and saw what I thought was a helicopter hovering in the distance. It was about 20 degrees up from the horizon and 46 degrees from magnetic north (which I calculated the following day). From my back yard that put the object between and past Georgetown an  Then it started to move right and then up to about 30 degrees from the horizpm. Taylor. I watched the object for about 20 minutes and it moved slowly but erratically and roughly stayed in the same location. The light initially look like a bright white light and then started to change colors. The colors ranged from red to blue to orange to green and sometimes half and half. I called a friend that has a high powered telescope and he was able to spot it. His first reaction was "Awesome, you are not going to believe this". He described the object as an orb with random color changes and spikes of color coming off of it around the circumference. He said it looked like bad special effects from old Star Trek shows. While we were on the phone together a second object appeared in the same location and moved in much of the same way as the first, except it moved along the horizon about 20 degrees up. I videoed much of the event on my Galaxy 6S but it is grainy. I also have video when the second object appeared. I was observing this from 21:30 to 22:30.

On 10/28/2015 I wanted to see if a similar event would take place and it did. Around 20:33 The light pop up from behind the tree line in roughly the same spot. It acted and moved much like it did the night before. I was able to get more pictures and video, but they are grainy. I did grab my old telescope and see if I could spot it an I did. It was amazing, it acted just as my friend described. From a distance it could be mistaken for a star but up close it rotates colors shoots light spikes and flashes.

My friend calculated it to be roughly 200 miles away due east north east at 46 degrees from dripping springs. Cities along this route include Cedar Park, Round Rock, and so forth.
Video was taken as well, but is a little too dark and grainy to share. Not an uncommon problem with UFO Sightings, especially the more legitimate.

June 30th UFO Flap: STrange Orbs Show Up All Over Texas

7/8/2013

  • When: June 29th & 30th, 2013
  • Where: All over, from Houston to El Paso
  • What: Reports vary, but a bright white orb hovering, moving, and also appearing and disappearing is the theme

I think it's safe to say Texas got a solid UFO flap on the nights of June 29th and 30th. A ton of reports from all over the Lone Star State hit the web and here's what they have in common:
  1. Witnesses were often disturbed or mistified by the experience (more often than not, UFO reports are actually quite dry)
  2. Bright white orbs hovering and also moving through sky were most common - and unsurprisingly, this is the most common type of UFO we see these days
I can't seem to find any meteor activity for these dates, and while individually, it's easy to explain away some of these UFOs, as a whole, they're pretty perplexing.

Let me know if you saw these UFOs (or any) over Texas on June 29th or 30th, or comment if you've got a theory! Maybe drones were just making their rounds?

Here are some video screen shots from sightings that occurred on the 30th:
