Lubbock top-shaped object sighting

within two or three days of August 31, 1951·Texas plains·USAF·unresolved

Two women driving along the Texas plains observed a top-shaped, silver object hovering over the prairie that accelerated when they approached it.

“two women were driving along in a car, and all of a sudden they looked out over the Texas plains and they saw this object that they described as being top-shaped, like one of these old-fashioned tops you put a string around and pull, and it was silver and it was hovering along over the prairie.”
