"Lubbock Lights" Sightings First Publicized

This event has not been added to any topics.

One of the most impressive ufo sightings ever took place in the town of Lubbock, Texas, in August and September of 1951. The sightings were photographed (above) and reported by hundreds of eyewitnesses, many of whom claimed to be able to make out a wing-like outline of a craft that was flying overhead. The first reported sighting took place on August 25th by an employee of the Atomic Energy Commision in Alberquerque, New Mexico. Both he and his wife stated they had seen a huge object with bluish lights on its rear edge pass overhead. The lights seemed to be about 800 feet overhead, and the pair could make out the vee wing shape of the craft. That same evening, several college professors sitting on a porch in Lubbock noticed a semi-circular formation of lights move quickly across the sky. Several hours later, the lights suddenly appeared again, this time glowing with a bluish color.
