The Woodlands, Texas, 9/11/2018 20:31 hours 267 ((address deleted)) I began doing aerial research after Hearing of reports in the are in the past three weeks. Through Facebook and Youtube. Being a current student of aviation, I sat out with equipment to see what was happening. I utilize three software apps while observing the sky. Freeflight24, Satellite, and Freeskypro. This helps pass the time. And correctly ID objects at a distance. At the end of my session I wanted to take a picture of the horizon so I powered up my (Sony dhc xv100) and set it to low light. At this point I could not see the object with my own eyes. After adjusting the ISO an image came into frame. I checked the lens for dust with a Trijicon lens duster; object was still there, I could faintly see it with my own eyes. It was hovering above the Westco Plaze about 500’ still very faint and hard to see with my own eyes. But clearly visible on the camera. After sever very low clouds moved in, the object was no longer visible.
