Sunday night we videotaped this object in the sky north of town. It appeared as a bright light (fireball) to the naked eye, Here you see the object traveling to the left of the screen. Scroll down to see more images, and please take note of the timestamp.

The object is still moving to the left of the screen towards a telephone pole. It appeared as one big steady light void of any navigation lights or strobe lights.

Here's where it gets interesting:
when the light reached the pole it reversed its direction!

Here, you see the light being eclipsed by the pole. At this moment I fully expected to see the object emerge from the opposite side.

You can imagine my surprise when the object suddenly reversed direction and began retracing its' flight path.

Here, I zoomed in on the light but soon discovered the camera wouldn't stay focused. I don't know what to think of this object? If it was an aircraft? It certainly was behaving weirdly!

With the help of the timestamp you can see where the object has reversed direction and now returning the way "it" came.

You will also notice that this all transpired within a little over a minute and a half. That's not the true length of the video, however. The sighting lasted about three minutes.

At this point, you see the object has reversed direction once again and returned to its' original heading before being lost among the trees northwest of town.

Note:The National UFO Reporting Center, started receiving UFO reports out of Kingfisher & Woodward, Ok., at around the same time this video was being shot. In fact, NUFORC received fireball reports all over North America, that night. Starting with Columbus Ohio, Brookston Indiana Lewistown Montana, Wapato, Washington, Tinton Falls, New Jersey, Champlin, Minnesota, Rue de la Montagne, Quebec and Ottawa, Ontario. (And these are only the reports I found in the NUFORC database.) Even the Prime Minister of Canada, Paul Martin, told the press that he and his flight crew had had an encounter with a UFO that night, while in the air over Alberta. A Wisconsin man reported fireball UFOs to police one hour before the supposed "Ottawa meteor" sightings.

Today we spotted this bright object (fireball) moving quickly across the sky. It was soon joined by another bright object. See below...

Here, if you look closely, you'll see another object at about 12 O'clock. This was a hard shoot, because one object was so high, it was difficult to keep both focused in the viewfinder at any given time. It took them a few minutes to cross from horizon to horizon. All the while they kept the same brilliance.

As the objects move off to the northwest, and out of view. You can see (with the help of the timestamp) that the objects stayed brighter much longer than a jet would, if it were reflecting the Sun.

As the unidentified aircraft came into view of the camera. It is moving to the left of the screen, which is west. Note, eyewitnesses claim the aircraft made no noise and had two steady red lights in the front. Scroll down to see more images...

Here's a closeup. The navigation lights did not blink and their arrangement are of such, that I don't know of any aircraft that uses them? The eyewitnesses were left with the impression they were like two "big red headlights" in the sky.

Compare these images with video taken in Alabama

Here, you see the left light slowly turn yellow as the object moved off to the west. The video lasts 54 seconds, which means this unidentified aircraft was moving at a pretty fast pace. Seeing that it traveled a good distance in the sky before being lost from view behind some trees. The eyewitnesses say they couldn't make out a shape other than the "big red headlights."
Once again, if you can help identify this aircraft, please contact us. I've left out the time this video was taken, as to confirm you did indeed see the same object.

At first glance I thought this was a regular jet, but now i'm not so sure? It was very bright and made no sound as it passed swiftly overhead traveling to the south. I lost sight of it a few moments later.

As it flew overhead no sound could be heard.

The aircraft remained very bright the whole time it traveled across the sky, which took less than two minutes. A few minutes later, a black jet, I believe to be an F-16 passed over flying along the same flight corridor. However, it was moving much slower and is heard quite clearly on the video.

Now almost gone from view. However, at this point, upon closer inspection of the video. A dark wedge-shaped wing can be seen.

April 24, 1999

When the object first came into view I zoomed in on it, but soon discovered the camera wouldn't stay focused.

After fighting with the camera awhile, I just shot what I could. The light flickered, sometimes glowing brighter and than softer. It truly looked like a fireball, or ball lightning or something.

At this point, the cable TV went off. This can be heard on the video.

As the object moved off, the cable TV came back on. I only wished I had my computer on at the time, so as to see what would have happened?

September 3, 1999

If you look closely at this picture you may see something strange. My first impression, was that this was a contrail.
Scroll down to see more...

However, I'd been watching the contrails that day, and upon closer inspection, I was shocked to see something that huge hiding there! There were a couple moments when the Sun reflected off of It, and it appeared smooth & metallic. This sighting lasted only a minute or so, but it did leave a lasting impression.

Is this what people are seeing over West Texas?

It seemed to be making clouds around it, as though it were ice cold?

More cigar-shaped UFOs

This strange cloud drifted off to the north, and soon disappeared among the other clouds. All I can say, is you had to be there. The camera can only catch soo much.

June 25, 1999

I just happened to see these aircraft coming out of the southeast and moving to the northwest on June 25, at around 7:40 pm. Your guess is as good as mine, as to what kind of aircraft these are? Most likely an inflight refueling? They moved in and out of the clouds swiftly.

The film is only 14 seconds long,(which demanded smooth camera movement,) so I didn't have much time to turn on the time stamp. Now almost gone from view.

A flash of light from one of them, as they disappeared in the clouds for the last time.
