Father and Son Witness Metallic Disc During Houston Air Show

10/29/2021

4 Comments

 
10/26/21 Update: Many online have suggested that these witnesses were simply misidentifying a blimp, and this was not a true UFO sighting at all! I can't argue too much with that theory, because the UFO hovered in the air, but didn't perform any other strange maneuvers, as far as I know. I'm still not convinced this is a blimp, though, based on the detailed testimonies. But let me know what you think!

  • When: October 9th, 2021 at 1:23 PM
  • Where: Ellington Airport in Houston, Texas
  • When: October 9th, 2021 during the Wings Over Houston Air Show

A silver, metal disc was seen and photographed in the daytime sky over Houston! A father and son were watching an air show over Houston when they spotted the "oval"-shaped object hovering. The pair are both aircraft hobbyists, and so they are certain that what they saw was a UFO and not something man-made, like a plane, helicopter, or drone. As always, you be the judge:

MUFON report (original one I came across, reported by son)

Silver Metallic Disc Shaped UFO observed during Houston Air Show

While photographing performing airplanes at the Wings Over Houston Airshow at Ellington Airforce Base on Saturday October 9th, my father noticed a small metallic object at a much higher altitude than the performing aircraft positioned directly overhead. Most of the performing aircraft were at a low altitude usually under 1,000 feet. It was difficult to say how high the object was since there was nothing else around it, but it was extremely high up; at least 12,000 feet if I had to guess, possibly much higher. He pointed it out to myself and two other spectators and we watched the object for about 5 minutes. The object was too far away to make out details, however it was clear it was not an airplane as it seemed to be stationary in the sky. As it was a sunny day with some clouds, the object seemed to be metallic as we could see a clear shine from it in the sun and it appeared to be a rounded. After a few minutes, the object seemed to drift to a different point in the sky and then again became stationary. When moving, the object left no sort of trail and didn’t show any evidence of engines or afterburners. My father took a picture of it with his DSLR camera and after five total minutes of observing the object it moved behind some clouds and we lost sight of it. A week later my father and I were reviewing the pictures we took at the airshow and came across the picture he took of the object. Amazingly we were able to zoom in on the object and get a decently detailed picture of it. The picture shows a disc/oval shaped silver object very clearly. Based on what we saw and the picture, there is no way it could have been a helicopter, airplane, or drone. My father is an engineer, and I am an engineering college student. Aircraft have been a hobby of ours all my life and we have never seen anything move or look the way this object did. I’ve seen jetliners, metallic WW2 aircraft, and drones at high altitude and have always been able to tell that they are some sort of airplane; this object looked nothing like that.

You can also check out this same testimony above, but as reported to NUFORC...

And here's the father's testimony, as reported to NUFORC:

Stationary silver metallic oval object at high altitude during 2021 Houston Air Show

While photographing acrobatic and performing airplanes at the Wings Over Houston Airshow at Ellington Air Force Base on Saturday October 9, I noticed a single small metallic object at a much higher altitude than the performing aircraft and located directly overhead and slightly to the left. Most of the performing aircraft seemed to be at altitudes between 300 feet to approximately 1,000 feet. This object seemed to be around 10,000 to 15,000 feet. The object left no trail of any kind. I pointed the object out to my son and two other spectators one row over also began looking at it. I observed the object for about 4 to 5 minutes. The object was too far away to make out details, however it was clear it was not an airplane as it seemed to be completely stationary in the sky. It was mostly a clear and sunny day and the object seemed to be metallic (silver) as I could see the reflection of the sun from it. The object seemed round or oval shaped. After a few minutes of being stationary, the object seemed to slowly drift to a different point in the sky and then again became stationary. I took a photograph of the metallic object with my Cannon EOS Rebel T6 digital camera with a 75-300mm zoom lens. I had to sit down in my spectator chair and point the camera directly overhead and slightly to my left to capture the object. The object then slowly moved behind some clouds and I lost sight of it. Once we downloaded the digital picture and further zoomed in on our computer, you could make out a metallic oval shaped object.

I am 56 years old and am an Environmental, Health, and Safety Manger. I enjoy photographing wildlife and vintage aircraft at air shows.

I was able to verify that the photo was taken with a Canon Rebel digital camera just like the witnesses claim, but of course I'd love to verify more aspects of this story.

Were you also at the Houston Air show earlier this month? Did you see this UFO, too? Help crack this case, and report your sighting!

Metallic donut-shaped object spotted in Houston area

10/4/2021

  • When: September 26th, 2021 at 9:45 AM
  • Where: East Bernard (Houston area)
  • What: "Metallic ring-shaped object"

A metallic "ring" or "donut"-shaped object was seen and flying over a highway west of Houston. Although a photo or video was not captured, the witness did draw a picture of what they saw, and submit detailed testimony to MUFON (case 118249):

metallic ring shaped object

Driving south on hwy 60 towards east bernard, tx, noticed an object flying towards me from over east bernard heading north parallel to hwy 60. first thought maybe a helicopter at low altitude. But as it became clearer it was a ring, or donut shaped object flying vertical with the hole in the center flying into the wind. it was metallic but kinda dirty looking also. it was also not crystal clear, like it had a hazy distortion around it. similar to heat waves. it appeared to be 500 to 750 feet above the ground, maybe 15 to 20 feet in diameter and was moving 50 to 60 mph in the opposite direction to me. it had something hanging down from it, like a skinny pole, or antenna type appendage. it was moving with the object, not flopping or moving independently. i pulled over on the shoulder of the road to turn around and pursue it and takes pictures, however because of traffic it took 15 to 20 seconds before i could turn around. i could see it when i turned but it had moved quite a bit away already. it was reflecting light from the sun so i could easily still see it, when i found a pull off spot i got out of my car and it was just gone. either vanished or had sped off out of sight at a high speed, i'm not sure, but it as gone. i drove a couple more miles in the direction it was traveling but never saw it again.

Clear Daytime Video Shows Orb Over Houston Area

9/9/2021

  • When: May 29th, 2021
  • Where: Tomball (Houston area)
  • What: Orb of light appearing, disappearing, circling around

A video showing a bright white light (seemingly) appearing out of thin air and flying around and changing directions, has been uploaded to YouTube. Could this be a drone, or something more mysterious? I'm trying to learn more about this sighting, but it appears the person who uploaded this video sees UFOs like his regularly, based on other uploads on their channel:

Witness Has Seen Triangle UFO Over Houston Multiple Times

9/2/2021

1 Comment

 
  • When:  Ongoing sighting, with most recent encounter being around April 2021 
  • Where: Houston
  • What: Silent, low flying, slow-moving triangle UFO

Marcos Renato reached out to me on Instagram to let me know he'd seen triangular-shaped UFOs over Houston multiple times. While he had no photos or videos to prove it, he said there was a good reason for that... during these encounters, he had a desire to capture the UFO on camera, but he just couldn't. As if something, or someone, was trying to stop him!

The most recent sighting occurred about five months ago. Marcos claimed he saw a silent, slow-moving triangle fly low over downtown Houston, and heading west.

Marcos was able to sketch a drawing of this craft, and to me, it looks like the classic triangle UFO I get so many reports of:

Witness recalls "glowing" cigar-shaped UFO that floated over home - north of Houston

3/23/2021

  • When: June 15th, 1984 at 1 AM
  • Where: Kline (north of Houston, near the Woodlands)
  • What: Large cigar-shaped UFO silently hovered over home

A really amazing testimony and drawing of a UFO over the Houston area has been submitted to MUFON (case 114207). Although the sighting occurred back in the 80s, the witness still remembers it to this day, and I'm glad they finally came forward to share:

Cigar shape glowing

I was coming home from friends about 12 midnight looking down at my Sony Salman when I looked up and saw a light coming up to me from the horizon! I looked over to my as I was by the driveway as my was at the end of the " a circle . as I turned to look at light it was floating over my friends home about 50 feet over he's making no noise just floating there. It was about 100 feet long and glowing wings with lights or round glowing circles in the square 'wings' I stood there and could not move as I was transfixed on the craft it was silent as no moter noise or hum I watched it for 4 /5 minutes then it stared to pulse then I ran to my and went to open the door to get my. Parents too come see it. I looked back up and it took off and was gone in 2 seconds. No noise or anything just gone in a few blinks of the eye. I will always remember it

Cigar UFOs have been in the news a lot lately, as an American Airlines pilot reportedly saw one while flying. But they are nothing new. Cigar UFOs have been reported for years, as this case proves. And in fact, there was famously a wave of "mystery air ship sightings" in the 1800s, in which many Americans witnessed rod, cylindrical or cigar-shaped UFOs, some of which had strange seemingly alien occupants!

Have you ever seen a UFO like this before? Then report your sighting, and help solve the mystery of the cigar UFOs!
