I Filmed a UFO at Chris Bledsoe's Skywatching Event
What Really Happened at the Chris Bledsoe UFO Summoning Event? One Firsthand Account
If you’re fascinated by UFOs and the wild world of skywatching, you’ve probably heard about events where people claim they can summon mysterious orbs or even alien craft just by being in the right place at the right time. Recently, I had the chance not just to witness such an event firsthand, but actually to be part of the conversation surrounding it. Here’s what really happened at Chris Bledsoe’s much-hyped summoning at Contact in the Desert—and why skepticism is just as important as an open mind.
Under the Desert Stars: Setting the Scene
It’s early June and I’m attending Contact in the Desert, a renowned UFO conference that attracts enthusiasts, investigators, and the curious from all over. One night, there’s a special outdoor event: a skywatch hosted by Chris Bledsoe, who’s known for his claims of being able to summon orbs, UFOs, and other entities. The buzz is real. As twilight turns the resort lawns dusky, anticipation is thick. Spotlights from the adjoining building make stargazing a challenge, but everyone, myself included, is eager to see what will happen.
Skeptics and Believers: The Event Begins
I’m not what you’d call a hardened skeptic or a true believer—I tend to take things as they come, with a fair dose of curiosity. That night, I’m sitting with Gino from The Wiles, chatting about burgers and bacon, when out of nowhere, a bright light flashes across the sky. It’s quick, almost too quick to catch, and it vanishes before anyone can film it. It was strange, I’ll admit, and I can’t explain exactly what it was. The weather had been rainy and cloudy, so the sky was layered and mysterious—making it tough to judge what flew by.
But as the event continued, Chris sets the crowd’s expectations: at exactly 9:45 PM he predicts a triangular UFO will appear. The anticipation builds again. When 9:45 comes and goes, there’s a ripple of disappointment. But at 9:47, a set of lights crosses the sky—except this time, I’m convinced (as are those around me) that we’re looking at a regular plane. It’s blinking, it’s on a standard flight path, and unlike the earlier unexplained flash, it fits every expectation of a commercial aircraft.
The UFO or the Plane? Unpacking the Viral Sighting
Chris Bledsoe shares a video of the 9:47 sighting online, claiming it as the predicted triangular craft. This gets plenty of attention, and his tweet describes the object descending beneath the clouds as promised. But from where I was sitting, it just didn’t line up. The crowd wasn’t anywhere near a thousand people—maybe a couple hundred max—and those around me were muttering the same thing: “It’s a plane.”
What’s more, Chris references specialized technology at the event, able to verify what’s in the sky. Yet, no evidence is offered to back up the claims. During the actual sighting, no one shines a laser pointer at the object—because pointing a laser at an aircraft is a federal offense, and it looks exactly like a plane to those of us on the ground.
The aftermath? My candid reaction on Twitter causes a stir—just being honest about what I witnessed. Soon, debunkers like MC West take it a step further, pinpointing exactly what flight the object was and confirming with data that it was, indeed, a plane. Drama aside, I feel it’s vital to be clear and truthful about what you witness, even if it goes against the prevailing narrative.
Why Healthy Skepticism Matters in the UFO Community
The field of UFO research is packed with incredible stories and out-of-this-world claims, and it’s easy to get swept up in the excitement. But this incident highlights why keeping a level head and questioning what you see (and what you’re told) is so important.
Calling something as mundane as a plane for what it is doesn’t negate the possibility of the extraordinary—it just weeds out the obvious so that real anomalies stand out. If we want to get closer to “the truth” behind these phenomena, we need to embrace evidence-based investigation and resist the urge to wish every unidentified light into an extraterrestrial spaceship.
The Takeaway: Curiosity Rooted in Reality
My experience at Chris Bledsoe’s skywatch has only solidified my belief in having an open but grounded approach to the unknown. There’s nothing wrong with calling it like you see it—and there’s room for both curiosity and healthy skepticism in this field.
Whether you’re a die-hard UFO believer, a pragmatic skeptic, or someone just starting to gaze upwards and wonder, it’s important to remain honest about your experiences. Not every flash in the night sky is a sign from above, but some things remain genuinely unexplained—and those are the mysteries worth chasing.

And remember: every day is a gift, and sometimes, what’s really out there might be closer (and more ordinary) than we think. Keep looking, keep questioning, and keep sharing your honest stories.
