Silver Sphere Hovers and Changes Shape Over Bryan, Texas

• When: May 24th, 2017 at 7:12 AM
• Where: Bryan (near Snook)
  
• What: Silver sphere hovering,  then changing into "cylinder"  shape and disappearing
  

According to a NUFORC report (case S134202),  late last  month a Texas driving along Riverside Parkway in Bryan, Texas, witnessed a round, silver object shaped like a baseball hover and then transform into a cylinder before disappearing:

Silver sphere hovered, changed shape, then disappeared.

On May 24th, 2017, at approximately 07:12 AM CST, I was driving SE on SH 47 (Riverside Parkway) in Bryan, TX. Just before taking my exit (HSC Parkway), I noticed a spherical, shimmering object hovering over the Snook, TX, area. It appeared basketball in size, silverish in color, and at a high altitude (1-2 miles). The angle on the horizon was approximately 75 degrees. This is close to Easterwood airport, so I initially thought it was a plane, then maybe a helicopter. However, the shape was not quite right.

I was driving, so my attention wavered from the object to the road. It was a bright, clear day and I noticed no unusual sounds or nearby objects. As I was about halfway down the exit ramp, the object appeared to change shape into an oblong cylinder and then disappeared. It left no trails or smoke. The event lasted approximately 5-10 seconds.

Weather conditions were as follows: Wind , WNW, 9 mph; Humidity 65%; Dew Point 54°; Pressure 29.8;8 in Visibility 10.0 mi.

I have a master’s degree and am a middle aged male. I have a good understanding of Astronomy and Physics. I have seen videos of similar events, but was skeptical of them until now. Whatever that object was, it defied the laws of Physics as we know it.

Although the witness was not able to capture a photo or video, sightings like these are commonly reported, and in fact a sighting of a round silver object hovering over Chicago occurred not long before this one in April:
