It looks transparent to me and not like a solid object... I'm willing to go along with the lens flare or reflection theory.... but who knows for sure?

www.ksla.com/story/19649488/ufo-on-google-street-view#.UGWje-uiW8A.twitter UFO on Google Street View? JACKSONVILLE, TEXAS Posted: Sep 26, 2012 7:06 PM EDT Updated: Sep 27, 2012 1:01 PM EDT By Jamey Boyum JACKSONVILLE, TX (KLTV) - A strange thing appears when you search for Jacksonville, Texas on Google Maps. If you select street view and pan around you'll see an unusual floating object with a familiar shape. It was pointed out to us in an email from Andrea Dove. She lives near Houston and was getting directions to visit her aunt in Jacksonville when she stumbled on the image. You don't even have to put in a street; just Jacksonville, TX., and go to street view, then pan around, and there it is: a thing that I don't know what it is. It looks like something from a low-budget 1950s flick. "And this, this is the bridge where Google Maps captured an image no one can explain. Not even the people of Jacksonville," I said, pointing at the overpass. CLICK HERE to see the map. maps.google.com/maps?q=jacksonville,+tx&hl=en&ll=31.963892,-95.270705&spn=0.000036,0.026157&t=h&hnear=Jacksonville,+Cherokee,+Texas&z=16&layer=c&cbll=31.963892,-95.270705&panoid=NVD4ytkhWO1Yc0Nzns_I0Q&cbp=12,236.17,,0,-50.13 The object was shot right by the Landmark building at the 69 and 79 intersection, Home of Sadler's Restaurant. And across the street there's a Taco Bell. Maybe something was smelling lunch. Most people who live in Jacksonville just said wow a lot when they saw the image.. I'm just not sure why an unknown object over Jacksonville would be red. I looked up a dozen different cities and didn't find any similar anomalies. That must make Jacksonville special. "Do you see anything?" I asked a couple residents. "Not yet," they replied. : WATCH VIDEO & CONTINUE READING www.ksla.com/story/19649488/ufo-on-google-street-view#.UGWje-uiW8A.twitter

I'm kind of wondering if some google employee might be adding things on to it here and there. They have done stuff like that before. I remember that The Stig showed up in a few google earth photos. I have heard rumors of other silly things making appearances also. I'll check and see if I can verify it.

theufobureau.com/the-latest-ufo-and-alien-news/two-identical-ufos-1000-miles-apart-caught-on-google-street-view-pakistan-daily-times I SAY UFO.... Sunday, September 30, 2012 Two identical UFOs 1,000 miles apart caught on Google Street ViewTwo mysterious and identical UFOs almost 1,000 miles apart have been observed on Google Maps - raising questions as to what they are and how they were photographed there in the first place. The red orb-like shapes are visible to all users of the application online at Jacksonville in Texas and at the Sky City Casino Hotel on 32 Indian Service Route 30, Acoma Pueblo in New Mexico, reports the Daily Mail. At both locations the same object appears in the sky hovering over the street and was first pointed out to ABC News affiliate KLTV in East Texas by Andrea Dover who noticed the first UFO while using Google Maps to get directions. To see the Texan UFO you don’t even have to enter a street into the search bar, just Jacksonville, Texas and go to street view, pan around there it is. To date no one has been able to explain the image, especially not the residents of both towns who seemed clueless as to what the glowing red flying saucer could be. It is not clear how the second identical image in New Mexico was discovered. The object that is seen in the Texas Google Map image was shot right by the Landmark building at the 69 and 79 intersection, near to Sadler’s Restaurant and right across the street from a Taco Bell restaurant. The most popular theory as to what the orbs are in reality are sun glare from the camera or the reflected arches of a McDonald’s restaurant. daily times monitor CONTINUE READING: theufobureau.com/the-latest-ufo-and-alien-news/two-identical-ufos-1000-miles-apart-caught-on-google-street-view-pakistan-daily-times

I'm inclined to believe it is either a lense flair or something that somebody creatively added in as a joke. There is no way that Google could "accidentally" film the exact same UFO in two different locations a thousand miles apart.

www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/10/02/google-maps-ufos-lens-flares_n_1930249.html?utm_hp_ref=twi don't agree with this article.... ... auntym Lee Speigel lee.speigel@huffingtonpost.com Courtesy Of Google Maps, UFOs Invade EarthPosted: 10/02/2012 Just a few days ago, a couple of Google Maps images surfaced, showing what appeared to be reddish-pink UFOs in the skies above Texas and New Mexico. With the help of photo-video analyst Marc Dantonio, The Huffington Post dismissed these pink alien wannabes as simple lens flares from the cameras that show images from across the country, helping folks locate specific addresses, towns and intersections. And now, these flying saucer-shaped items are all over Google. Many HuffPost readers sent in street-view images of an apparent invasion of pink lens flares in the U.S. While the main story image, above, may, at first glance, appear to be a pink flying saucer skimming along the atmosphere of Earth, here's what the full picture looks like, in all its rural glory: "Not only was the lens flare the same color, but it was actually more complete (as in more visible), as well," Dantonio told HuffPost in an email. "In this image [of the lens flare near the ground], you can see even more brighter detail. Notably, you can also see that the sun itself in the image has a halo of reddish light around it as well. This is likely due to the overwhelming brightness causing scattering and lens effects."

Nice find, auntym. I like explanations that are as thorough as that one. He did a good job with it.
