Stephenville Case Not as Compelling as it Looks!!!!

First of all what is with the tendency of witnesses to claim 1 mile wide diameter on so many newer sightings like this. Is there a reason this was spotted by a military base that has been very busy lately? People said they saw lights dancing. This could easily be blinking lights on a typical aircraft such as the blinking lights in the first video of the Stephsville sighting. I am not convinced yet that this could not be anthing more than another airforce active denial non lethal drone or spy plane in the black

I've been considering that possibility all along. The reported size of the craft is what leads people to an alien/mothership scenario. Could be we've developed a humongous piece of machinery ourselves. I doubt the mile long business though. It's very difficult to judge the size of something without concrete reference points.

It's at least something to consider.

Based solely on this one piece of video, I'd have to conclude that this is likely a man-made object. Do UFOs use blinking lights?

As is often the case, I can't match up the video evidence with the testimonials I've heard on this thing. When you hear people talk about this sighting—a semi-stationary object with typical aircraft blinking lights is not what you think of. Reminds me of the "Phoenix Lights." You hear people talk about what they saw, and it sure doesn't sound like the video we always see played over and over again. That footage , once again, looks like pretty standard stuff (flares etc). What's up with this discrepancy?

There simply HAS to be more to these cases than the video evidence suggests. But I'm at a loss. If something more unusual happened, why do we only get video of pretty ordinary-looking events? Our society is awash in cameras—both still and video—and I just don't understand why people describe these crazy things that happen but nobody got any decent pictures of them.

I'm trying to remember where I saw that, but I believe it is video from elsewhere.

What's the story with the video—that's not related to the Texas UFO, is it? Like previous poster I feel that I've seen it before. Like most stuff out there could be CGI.

I back out of my original thread topic

this video was from 3 years ago by a man in Texas who did not tell anyone until after this sighting

so my fault

dump this thread

I don't believe anyone stated a mile wide, the hunter in Dublin, Texas said that it was at least as big as the ravine he was in, which he guessed was around 300 ft. Could be wrong, but I haven't heard any mile wide descriptions.

No, a mile was mentioned somewhere in the very beginning, but Sorrells corrected that. Said it was more like a thousand feet, but I hadn't heard the correction until later. I think Linda Howe stated it incorrectly to begin with.

To her credit, Linda Howe has been in Texas interviewing different witnesses that no one has heard from until now. Many seem to back up other witnesses. Some sightings were very different.
