Flash over Orlando (Lake Jessimine), FL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
At 11:45 pm, I heard what I thought was thunder outside. Then saw flashes of light through my windows. I went outside and their was not a cloud in the sky and the temperature was around 60 degrees. Then something that resembeled a large dragonfly, of a light green color flew past me. It was practically invisible. The night before at dusk I saw a yellowish, orangish round object flying parallel and just above the tops of the trees at high speeds, heading south. Last month at 7:30 pm my daughter and I saw a very bright, white object hovering for 4 seconds and then flew away at very high speeds without a sound. One week prior at 7:30 pm I saw a white, bright object in the sky moving very slow, then it turned red, then a flash of light and a illuminated cloud or smoke appeared in front of it and it disappeared. Six years ago I went outside my house at 7:00 am and saw in the eastern sky 3 black bowling shapes in a triangle pattern hovering for about 10 seconds then flew away heading south at very high speeds without sound. All of these occurances happened over Lake Jessimine, near Oakridge road and State Rd. 441.

Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.
