As reported

Other over Miami (Bal Harbor), FL

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

I was driving today from Collins Avenue to the west (north Miami direction), looking for an autoparts shop because today I got a “maintance required” light up in my control panel which I found very strange because everything in the car seems to be fine, oils levels, coolant level, even battery levels, everything was working but nevertheless the light was on. So I cross the bridges over the water, and I am looking at this very impressive summer sunsent, with very strange and massive clouds around it, and suddenly I see something out of place. (time around 7:10/7:11 pm) I see something shining in between the clouds (in the direction of the sunset), but with a shape that does not appear to be natural at all. I could see the exhaust glowing on the left side of what appear to be a huge ufo, an under glowing too, and over it what appear to be like a city over it, picture when you see the top of a navy carrier, that’s what it look like on the top of the huge ufo. I was driving and over a bridge so I couldn’t stop to see it without risking to be part of a car accident. I pull out my phone, while driving, and tried to take a picture, but I could not get it. I did got the time which is enough giving the facts. Now, before I get call crazy or whatever, I want to state clearly that the whole structure was not visible, the only parts visible where the ones I describe before, the exhaust on the left side and under and the shining of the sun on the top structure. If this is actually a ufo, it was extremely big and most probably was inside the atmosphere because I guess the reflection effect is not the same if you are in space. But I don’t know, I am not a weather expert. I want to add, today was a very strange day weather wise. It was full of clouds that looked like columns, it wasn’t raining but the sky was full of electrical activity. I am completely sure that if this was an UFO there is no way, no way, the radars would miss it, it was just to enormous. I would love to know if there were any radar “anomalies” today over Miami.

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.
