A Texas witness at Galveston reported watching and videotaping a “clear, circle-shaped, silent object” slowly moving overhead,” according to testimony in Case 57336 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness was outside playing basketball with his brother and several friends near the seawall in Galveston about 8:30 p.m. on June 12, 2014, when they noticed a silent, clear circle flying overhead and heading north.
“Probably five or six people witnessed the event,” the witness stated. “No one could tell what it was.”
The group watched the object until it was out of sight.
“It traveled straight the whole time.”
Texas STAR Team Investigator Charles Stansburge investigated this case and closed it as an Unknown.
“According to the witnesses, the object was a round, clear orb moving across the sky heading north,” Stansburge stated in his report.“The object had no color – just clear with an outline. The size was about two-to-three feet in diameter and about 500-to-750 feet in altitude at 30 degrees and about 250 yards away from them.The weather was 82 degrees F with a south wind at 8.1 mph and clear.”
The object was seen for about two minutes and was traveling in a north-northeast direction.
