I immediately said "Is that a ufo?!" - Austin area

• When: February 7, 2013
• Where: Somewhere from Austin to Crockett, TX
• What: Metallic sphere, disappears

A road trip from Austin to Crockett got interesting when the passenger saw a UFO - apparently a metallic object was just hanging around in the sky, stationary, only to abruptly disappear (it's also possible the eyewitness just lost sight of it). Since it was a daytime sighting, stars or satellites can't really be blamed. Here's the full MUFON report:

I was in a car sitting shotgun while my father drove. We were headed up to Crockett from Austin to visit the my grandparents. I noticed the object and immediately said 'is that a UFO?!' It was a small metallic sphere. A little larger than a bb from a bb gun. It was silver/grey in color and kind of reflecting the sunlight. It was completely stationary and made no sound. I would guess that it was maybe a mile away, maybe 30 degrees from the horizon in the eastern sky. I observed it for about 30 seconds and then it went from being silver metallic in luster to a dark grey and not reflective at all. As we were driving some trees obscured my view for maybe three or four seconds. After we had passed the trees the object had vanished. I am curious if anyone else noticed this object. I recall that there were power lines between myself and the object. I think we had been driving for an hour or so but I cannot be sure which town we were passing through when I noticed the object.
