A father and his young children saw a bright light moving across the sky in Oklahoma and believe it could be a UFO.
Steve Aragona was in the front yard of his Oklahoma City home at 7:29 p.m. CST on Monday when the object lit up the sky.
He posted a video of the incident online. In it, a boy said it looked like a shooting star, but was told it moved too slowly. Another boy thought it must be a UFO.
Suddenly, a misty circle emerged from the object as it moved, as if it was blowing a ring of smoke, and moved in the opposite direction.
“It looks like it’s separating from itself,” Aragona, before one of the children said the ring looked more like a sound wave.
Some people who saw the video thought it might be a Space X rocket that took off around the same time from Florida.
However, the launch was at 6:56 pm EST, an hour and a half later than when the video was filmed.
The video was also filmed looking west, and Florida is east of Oklahoma, leading experts to believe it must be something else.
Ken Carson, an aerospace professor at the University of Oklahoma, told KFOR that it looked like a rocket taking off, even if it wasn’t a Space X launch.
‘It seemed like the normal rise of a rocket with a propellant separating the staging. “It’s a new explosion, so to speak, of oxidized propellant, coming from the separation of that first stage,” he said.
The Vandenberg Space Force Base in Southern California said it was not one of its rockets.
Suddenly, a misty circle emerged from the object as it moved, as if it was blowing a ring of smoke, and moved in the opposite direction.
More than 100,000 alleged extraterrestrial sightings have been submitted to the National UFO Reporting Center between 2000 and 2023.
More than 100,000 alleged extraterrestrial sightings have been submitted to the National UFO Reporting Center between 2000 and 2023, according to data submitted by the Center and the United States Census Bureau.
The national average of alleged alien sightings between those years throughout the country is 34.3 per 100,000 inhabitants.
Unsurprisingly, most are in Lincoln Country, Nevada, which is home to Area 51, with 820.9 sightings per 100,000 residents.
Area 51 is one of the most famous classified air force bases that has been filled with urban legends about aliens and UFOs.
Other areas that have had between 500 and 600 extraterrestrial sightings between 2003 and 2023 are Alpine County, California, Petroleum County, Montana, and La Paz County, Arizona.
