"Looking back I realize that pilot was probably feeling terrified and it was a harrowing situation. But at the time I felt normal and calm" - El Paso UFO Encounter

1/6/2022

  • When: 2010 or 2011 (exact date unknown)
  • Where: El Paso
  • What: UFOs seen following plane and also speeding around it, and moving in different directions

A really compelling case from years ago is just now surfacing online! A witness has taken to Reddit to describe an encounter they had of "2 bright orbs of light" darting around a plane in El Paso:
Sharing my experience in El Paso TX (~10 years ago), UFO engages airplane. Hoping someone else saw it too.
In ~2010 or 2011, I was living in El Paso, Texas. I had easy access from my house to a foothill of the Franklin Mountains. A few nights a week, I would walk up the desert mountain a bit and sit in peace. Sky gaze, just chill.
Watching the sky often, I learned to identify the things I saw. Satellites, shooting stars , how an airplane can look pretty crazy from one angle, but if you wait and keep watching as it crosses the sky, you will always eventually see the flashing lights. Sometimes you see little slow moving lights that you cant identify, and you think "That probably has an explanation, or it's a trick of the brain, who knows, because I'm just not sure." So you think you might've seen a few UFOs, but being unsure, it becomes a little mundane.
Now, for exactly what happened, my memory surrounding the situation is a little weird. There are parts I remember and see clear as day in my mind's eye. Then there's other stuff that's just vague recollection. So I want to be clear on what I'm certain about and what I'm uncertain about. I was sitting on the foothill, with my back facing the mountain. My body was facing the city (east), but I was turning to look behind me. I saw an airplane flying over the mountain, from the west side of El Paso. All of that I am clear on.

At some point, almost immediately, 2 bright orbs of light came in instantaneously. I very clearly remember one of the orbs following this plane at extreme close distances, darting instantly back and forth, on either side of this plane like a z pattern. I watched this happen until the orbs of light both zipped off, upwards in an instant and that was it. The plane carried on.

I am not 100% certain how long it went on. I have no recollection of what the other orb was doing, if anything at all. I just remember there were 2 and one of them just zipping back and forth insanely fast. The plane was low enough that I could see all of this clearly, but I couldn't make out what type of plane it was in the dark, and I am no good at guessing distances or identifying planes.
Looking back I realize that pilot was probably feeling terrified and it was a harrowing situation. But at the time I felt normal and calm. No alarm at seeing a ufo engage an airplane. I don't remember feeling much of anything, besides just a factual "I just saw a UFO." I don't really remember how long I stayed out there after seeing this, or going in. Just unremarkable afterwards. I didn't tell anyone, I don't know why.

I think it's worth noting that Ft. Bliss is located within El Paso, and in 2011, there was an incident with video of many lights in the night sky, floating in formation which turned out to be identified as a military flare exercise. This is not what I saw at all.

Occasionally over the years, I would just casually remember or mention it a handful of times. It wasn't until I randomly felt inspired to look into the subject again earlier this year, and began seeing some weird similarities, that I began to realize the significance of what I saw. Some things that stick out for me are:

•deliberate, erratic engagement with an aircraft •how few videos of sightings exhibit any of the 5 Observables but this thing exhibited at least 3 •the fact that this took place directly over a desert mountain range. •Also took place directly over a military base, and other bases in the surrounding area •the weird state of my memory and calmness and immediate sort of disinterest

There's a few other things that could be me reaching, so I wont bother to include them.

Now I realize I witnessed something significant. I realize I saw something that I wasn't supposed to see, and clearly it has been covered up, because I have never heard or read a word about it anywhere in the years since. I realize there is at least ONE other person on Earth who saw what I saw, the pilot on that plane. I wish I could talk to that person and hear their side. Or anyone else on the ground who saw the same thing I saw. Is it possible that no one else happened to be looking up in the sky on that night, at that moment? Did they also just calmly accept it and move on? I have shared a super short version of this a few times but I have gone back and forth on really posting what I saw in hope of finding another witness or more info. I'm really conflicted about sharing, but I'm just dying to know more at this point.

We don't have photos or videos of this incident... yet! But maybe there is another witness out there who snapped a photo or has a testimony to share. If you are that witness, please let me know!

"Black Tic Tac-shaped object seen from SW El Paso"

12/27/2021

0 Comments

 
  • When: December 21, 2021 at  7:45 AM
  • Where: southwest El Paso
  • What: Black "Tic Tac" UFO hovers and then descends

I have covered many "Tic Tac" UFO sightings in Texas, but this is one of the first times I've reported on a "black" "Tic Tac-shaped" object. Check out the testimony submitted to MUFON (case 119924):
Black tic tac shaped object seen from SW El Paso above Rio Grande

After taking my dog outside to go to the bathroom I was walking back to my apartment and noticed a black tic tac-shaped object hovering over the Rio Grande near Sunland Park, NM. It hovered left to right, flashed a light, and then descended below a large hill and never ascended.

Did you see this UFO, too? Report your sighting so we can solve this mystery!

Do you have ideas on what this witness could have seen? Share them here in the comments or on Facebook or Twitter.

"The ball divided into two smaller balls" - UFOs Spotted Over El Paso

9/10/2021

  • When: August 21st, 2021 11:47 PM
  • Where: El Paso
  • What: "1 ball turned into 2 balls" of light

A very short, but intriguing testimony of a single UFO splitting into two separate UFOs has been submitted to NUFORC (case 164466). Although no photos or videos where taken of this particular event, this is a distinct type of sighting that I have seen over the years. What is going on here? Check out this witness testimony, and let me know what you think:
1 ball turned into 2 balls.

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.

To help illustrate my point that this type of sighting is something I've reported on before, check out these headlines:

3/5/2021

  • When: March 3rd, 2021 possibly - still confirming date
  • Where: El Paso
  • What: Bright ball of white light slowly moving

A bright white ball of light was filmed slowly ascending above a building in El Paso. Toward the end of the 1:17 video, the UFO speeds up and a red light blinks on it. So, could this just be a misidentified drone? Watch the video and let me know what you think. I've reached out to the witness for more information, so I will keep this story updated as I learn more:

Daytime Photo Shows Large, Rod-shaped UFO Flying Under a Blimp - El Paso

5/20/2020

  • When: May 9th, 2019 at 3:28 PM
  • Where: El Paso (east of the Franklin Mountains near Scenic Drive)
  • What: Dark rod-shaped object appears under unmarked blimp

An El Paso resident, who would like to be known as "S," was working in their backyard when they heard and then spotted a blimp overhead. So, they took some photos of the blimp, but weren't able to identify any markings on it. Later when viewing photos of the blimp, they noticed something strange flying next to it... a large, dark, and mysterious rod-shaped object:

I was working in my backyard when I heard a strange aerial engine noise. I then realized that it sounded like a blimp and when I saw it I noticed that it had no markings on it. I quickly snapped three photos of it on my cellphone but what struck me was that it was flying by at very fast rate of speed. I wasn't sure if it was due to strong wind currents above as it was calm where I was. Later that evening, I took out my cellphone to show my family the photos when I noticed an object in the last frame underneath the blimp.
I was able to find another mention of a blimp seen over El Paso from May 2019, but that's as far as my trail has taken me so far. I'll be reaching out to Goodyear, and following up with the witness for more detail, but in the meantime, let me know what you think!

Could this be an object or banner hanging from the blimp, as part of an advertising campaign or even a military exercise? Or perhaps this is just a piece of dust on the lens, considering the witness didn't see it with their naked eye.

If it is a UFO, one has to wonder why it's flying right below an unmarked blimp!
