An extremely bright and large orb hovered high up in the night sky for several minutes near Fort Hood, according to a recent report  submitted to MUFON (case 83602). The witness snapped a photo:

I was leaving work and about to get in my truck when I saw the object in the sky to the SW of my position. Object was bright and too big to be a star or planet. It was not the moon. Object seemed textured, almost like a mirror ball, and appeared about the diameter of a dime held at arms length in the sky. The object just hovered in the sky and did not move. I heard no sound other than that of traffic but I don't think the object was close to me. I had the impression it was very large but a good ways off. I watched approximately 10 minutes and then it was just gone. I never saw it move. It just wasn't there anymore.

This is very close to Fort Hood so it very well could be something military but I'm used to seeing transports and helicopters of all shapes and sizes. This was none of those aircraft.

It may be nothing but thought I'd send the picture your way just in case.

Could this be a military craft, as the witness suggested, considering the close proximity to Fort Hood? Or could this be alien? It doesn't appear to be a typical plane, drone, satellite, or weather balloon, that's for sure! Share your theories about this UFO sighting in the comments below or on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram!
