A Texas witness near Gordon saw "4 to 5 yellow-orange lights in a row" on March 4 that resembled and behaved similar to a Stephenville sighting a few months earlier, according to testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) database.
The Stephenville sighting occurred along Highway 6 near Carbon.
The witness said that his thumb, extended at arm's length, covered the lights, making the objects much higher in the sky than the previous sighting.
The witness left to retrieve an Iphone, and return to find the objects had gone.
Gordon is in Palo Pinto County, population 467. The UFO Examiner also covered yellow flashing lights in the sky in
Dubline, TX, March 4 in: Dublin, TX, witness reports more than 30 'huge lights' in sky.
The following is the unedited and as yet uninvestigated report filed with MUFON. Please keep in mind that most UFO reports can be explained as something natural or manmade. If Texas MUFON investigates and reports back on this case, I will release an update.
Texas, March 4, 2010 - 4 to 5 yellow orange lights in a row. MUFON Case # 22207.
I work on a ranch so I am outdoors all the time. At 834pm I left the barn and was walking outside when I noticed 4 to 5 yellow orange lights in a row.
They were southeast of Gordon Texas just above the tree line. If I extended my arm towards the lights I could cover them with my thumb. In other words they were not close to me.
The lights were very intense. to the right a new light appeared and the far left light disappeared. I went back to the barn to get my phone and when I returned the lights were gone.The total time that I watched them was for a few seconds.
I immediately recognized the formation as I have seen a similar one before.
Several months before the big sighting at Stephenville TX, I was on Hwy 6 near Carbon TX. When I saw the lights I was almost directly under them. I stopped behind a trucker and his wife who were looking at them also. This thing was huge.make a fist and extend it to the sky. It was the width of 4 fists. the lights did not move,but rather one new light would form to the right and the far left light would disappear.
When the new light was forming it resembled a neon sign that flickers before it comes on completely. In between the lights there were no stars present. But when the left light would disappear stars could be seen.
Consequently, when a new light was forming to the right the stars would fade and only the new light and the light next to it could be seen. We also noted a jet flying above the lights in a circular pattern. The jet was making noise but the lights in a row were silent. I do not remember how long we watched it but it traveled west until it went out of our sight. I also do not know how many minutes passed until a new light would form. I was rather excited and did think about that at the time.
