I live in Rowlett, TX and on October 16, 2009 I saw a circular bright object that pulsated with multiple colors within it.
I live in Rowlett, Texas and on Oct 16, 2009, at approximately 20:00 I was standing in my front yard . It was dark outside. I looked up toward the western sky and saw what I thought was a bright star. When I looked further, it appeared to be flashing colors. I then thought it must be an airplane. I kept watching it and noticed that it wasn't moving. I called my husband to come look at it.
He couldn't determine what the object was either. We grabbed my son's binoculars (not high quality) and was able to make out a circular shape with mainly the bottom half only visible. It was a white light with multiple colors flashing or pulsating within the sphere.
The texture reminded me of a decorative ball made up of twine, meaning there were un-uniformed holes in it. The object moved very slow. We actually watched it for approximately 25 minutes. It finally went behind a cloud and we lost sight of it.
I have no idea what it was. I know it wasn't a star, airplane, helicopter or planet. I've never seen a ufo. This my first. I'm very interested in finding out what it could have been. I would appreciate any assistance.
Thank you, ((name deleted))
