Circle over Fort Lauderdale, FL

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

The report, as filed

My friend was getting into his car at around 8:30-9:00pm, when he noticed something flying in the air. He called me over and pointed toward the object he was watching and my eyes immediately fixated on it. The object was very high in the sky and I live near the Fort Lauderdale airport so I know most aircrafts do not reach those altitudes when preparing to land or even after taking off. Most airplanes I am familiar with never reach altitudes past 60,000 feet but the object had to have been up at least 100,000 feet. The UFO appeared as a seemingly small, circular, reddish dot in the sky, it did not flash or glow. It was traveling at relatively high speeds but that was the least interesting thing about it. After we stood watching it for almost a minute, I pulled out my phone in an attempt to get real footage of what we witnessed. I had an iPhone 6s Plus and the quality of the camera along with the height of the UFO made it impossible to capture due to the time ! of night. (This has made me into more of a believer than before knowing that even modern day technology is barely capable of capturing something so astonishingly high in the sky.) It made no audible sounds possibly because of its altitude. We watched the object continue across the sky until we noticed another exactly similar one! They were flying towards each other until they got very close to one another. I knew this was beyond human capability, because one UFO (the second one to be spotted) came to an abrupt stop. The UFO we originally seen continued on after they had crossed paths for approximately 5-10 seconds. We watched in amazement and curiosity as the second UFO stopped moving as if it had spotted us! It shot a white, star-colored dust into the air which dissipated very quickly, which after deep thought, we believe to be a thruster of some sort because the second UFO vanished moments later. In total, we witnessed about 2 minutes of seemingly unexplainable activity happening thousands of feet above us. My only dream now is to make contact with those potential life forms as I find humans intolerant or ignorant to the concept of extraterrestrial life inhospitable. Please do not take this as a joke, there is clear, consistent evidence of extraterritorial contact being covered up by governments around the world. If there is any way I could assist the NUFORC or MUFON team in proving other-worldly existence, please reach out to me! Source of report indicates that the date is approximate. PD

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.

I was going on a midnight walk when i looked at the sky and saw what initially looked like an asteroid burning up while entering atmosphere but then realized it couldn't be because after i saw streak of fire behind the ufo it briefly disappears then re appears and continues moving then when moving a haze or aura appeared trailing behind the moving object SpaceX [NUFORC annotation: Rocket - Certain]

3 bright lights turned in synchronicity which caught my attention. I was riding in the car with my man and I pulled out my camera and filmed it. The ship was quite large. The lights followed as the car travelled north.

Just west of the airport FLL, three large lights were onserved intermingling and moving in patterns. They were about 1000-2000ft and moving in a pattern not associated with aircraft. They were large. They were not on radar. We have pictures of them.

Standing in my backyard my wife Andi witnessed two orange lights coming out of the southeast sky moving northwest. They appeared to fly like an airplane but did not have the usual lights we see on the many aircraft in the area. ( We live near the airport). We also heard no sound and the lights seemed to following one another at a constant set distance. The light was very much orange in color and flickered like fire. It wasn't the bright white light of a commercial airliner and there were no other colors or anything flashing. Just constant orange light. We could not see any shape or vehicle, just light without sound. They moved across the sky much like two airplanes would until one began climbing quickly followed soon after by the other. In a matter of seconds they were out of sight.
