Light over Port St. Lucie, FL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
On Sunday, May 29, 2016, just after 9:00pm, I was in my car with my husband and sister. We just went through the northbound toll booth to enter the Florida Turnpike in Port St. Lucie, Florida, when I noticed about 15 to 20 lights in the eastern sky. I was shouting, “Look at that! Do you guys see all those lights? What are they?” So, my husband pulled over and he got out to take some pictures with his phone camera. My sister also got out to do the same, but I stayed in the car, opened the window, and took some pictures and then I changed it to video. There were other cars that pulled over to take photos, too. I took the first video until most of the lights had gone beyond the trees so I couldn’t see them anymore. Then, I saw 2 more so I took a second video of those. To my surprise, my first video of all of the UFO’s turned out to be just black. Nothing showed in that video, but my second video when there were only 2 of them visible did record correctly, and I also have three still photos which were taken in succession that shows about 7 or 8 of them as the rest were beyond the trees when we had pulled over. My husband’s phone was, for some reason, inoperable at first and then he was able to get 2 photos. My sister’s photos were all black, like my video, but she did manage to get 1 photo of the last 2 ufos. For the record, some of the lights were white, some orangey, and some red. It seemed like they were moving in formation but then some moved faster than others and then some disappeared. In the video that I took that was visible, one light was white and the last one was very bright red. When we first saw them before pulling over, it looked like a whole armada of ufos in the sky. I’ve never seen anything like it! By the time we pulled over and I took my first photo it was 9:05pm, and my last video was taken at 9:09pm. I am a business owner, and my husband is an attorney.

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.

Illuminated cloud. Nothing around to illuminate it, seemed to light up from inside. About as large as the hotel sign. Stationary for a few minutes the fairly quickly turned into a straight line and then the cloud dissipated. When I increased contrast on original photo it seemed like there was a disk shape inside the cloud. This was the only cloud in the sky.

Im driving for a rideshare company and just dropped off my final rider for the night and a block away, I stop at about 250am on the morning of Sunday December 11 at a stop sign to put my app on "home mode" when I noticed this really bright light as bright as the streetlights around me up in the sky on the horizon. It starts moving toward me and when it does it continues to glow really bright and a blue tail followed in its path. It looked like a comet but as it got closer I noticed it looked like a ship. Im not kidding when I say it looked like an A-wing from Star Wars. I tried my quickest to get my phone out and record. I shut down my app and pulled up my camera. Unfortunately the camera was facing me (selfie mode) and it was too dark to see. I noticed however it wasnt picking up the UFO. I turned the camera off and back on and hit record. As I was doing this the entire thing, ship and light blue contour just completely disappear. I notice out of exactly where the light was, these barely visible orbs. 2 of them. They take off in opposite directions. I continue filming one of them as I exit my vehicle. In the video Im freaking out. Im talking about the orbs as I follow one with my camera. Then it goes out of sight on the horizon to my right. Im still filming, freaking out and upset because I missed filming the best part. Then, on film, a 3rd orb appears where the 1st one originated in front of me near the horizon. I film it and got a great video. It was a bright yellow light and it appeared out of nowhere. I saw it materialize. Then it got really bright like an exploding star. I start freaking out again and it disappears on film. I continue to watch for 20 more minutes and it seemed to be over so I shut it down and went home. I have the video but it says it is too large to upload it. I would like to give it to you. Please contact me for it via email. Thank you.
