Detail
In January 2008, around 40 named residents of Stephenville, Texas — including a constable, a private pilot, and a freight-company owner — reported a large, silent craft with pulsing lights moving at low altitude, several describing military jets in pursuit. The U.S. Air Force initially denied any activity in the area, then reversed two weeks later, admitting ten F-16s from the 457th Fighter Squadron had been training that night. MUFON researchers later obtained FAA radar data via FOIA and published an analysis that is among the most cited civilian analyses of government radar data in modern UAP research.
