Quote from the article:
“The Air Force alerted its nation-wide radar network today to watch for a ‘brilliant mystery object’ that has been reported flying in a crazy pattern over Texas, New Mexico and the Gulf of Mexico in the last two days.

Air Force officials said the latest sightings have been placed in an unexplained category pending investigation …

A statement issued by the Air Force said: ‘The air defense command radar network is keeping watch . . . trained personnel are investigating reports on scene.’

The alert coincided with the release of an official dispatch to U.S. Coast Guard headquarters reporting that the cutter ‘Sebado’ [sic] had contacted the strange object several times by radar over the middle of the Gulf of Mexico this morning.

Comdr. Clarence H. Waring, skipper of the Sebago, said the object looked like a ‘brilliant planet.’ His radar contacts indicated that the object was moving at from 240 to 900 miles an hour, frequently changing its direction, but at one point appeared to be completely stationary in the sky.”
