National UFO Reporting Center Sighting Report
Occurred : 9/11/2016 19:43 (Entered as : 09/11/2016 19:43) Reported: 9/11/2016 8:05:08 PM 20:05 Posted: 9/15/2016 Location: Austin, TX Shape: Fireball Duration: 10 seconds Characteristics: The object left a trail, There was an aura or haze around the object, The object emitted other objects, The object landed, There were electrical or magnetic effects
Fireball passes overhead, shiny disc appears and lands An enormous fireball zipped overhead, leaving a trail behind it, and apparently landed on the ground. Several citywide blackouts and electronic disturbances took place in the hours prior to this happening. I was driving along I-35 around 7:43PM, when I saw a massive spherical ball of yellow light moving along the sky leavng behind a blue-white trail behind. Sparks were emanating from it similar to those a large Tesla coil produces. The light then disappeared and a smaller metallic object appeared where the light was. The object was a lustrous disc or saucer-shaped object and appeared to land west of I-35. Hundreds of people saw this. There were massive and alternating blackouts in Austin 12-24 hours before this took place. Several radio towers were also malfunctioning that day, leading to certain television programs such as CBS not airing. Please investigate this incident. I am shocked and frightened by what I saw. ((NUFORC Note: A well written report, but we wonder whether it is a serious-minded, and sincere, report. If anyone knows anything about the alleged blackouts, or about the event itself, we would welcome additional reports. PD)) ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD))
