  • When: April 27th, 2013
  • Where: Tomball (Houston area, west of the Woodlands and Spring)
  • What: Sparkling orbs, turning off and on all over sky -- likely Chinese lanterns

We've got some beautiful footage of dozens of UFOs filling the night sky over Tomball, Texas. They look like fireflies, blinking off and off. However, they do look an awful lot like Chinese Lanterns, and that's what local Chris Bounds says in a YouTube comment. Despite the "debunking," Bounds - oddly enough - is a fan of UFOs, as he liked a video about Wikileaks and UFOs a year ago. Because of this connection to UFOs, I would like to know a little more about Mr. Bounds, just to make sure he's not part of some kooky disinfo scheme. I'm 99% sure that's not the case, though. : )

Are these Chinese lanterns or UFOs? Let me know what you think in the comments!


Here's the YouTube comment:

This was around 9:30 PM CST just out side of Tomball. They are Chinese lanterns lunched from a party off Ezekiel Rd. near Hufsmith Kohrville Rd. They were red with a flickering white light at the bottom. They moved kind of fast because of the bad wather we where having. They could be seen for miles. Calls came in from Tomball Parkway near the Santikos Silverado IMAX Movie theater. I was out there on patrol and saw them 1st lunched. I then found where they where coming from. - Chris Bounds
