Oval over Pasco County, FL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
On 3/5/16, at approximately 1745 hrs., a photo was taken by my brother in Pasco County, Florida, of the sunset. He then sent that photo to me that showed a blue-green sphere at the 8:00 position from the sun. The Sun was approximately 10 to 15 degrees above the horizon and setting over the Gulf of Mexico. On the same day a beach goer in Homosassa Springs, Fla., sent a photo to the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office Facebook page showing a similar sphere, with same color, at the same position provided above. We have photos’s of both that were taken with an iPad and iPhone. During that day we had been watching what appeared to be significant chem trails north to south and then east-west.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #126271). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
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.
