Diamond over Lake City, FL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was walking outside to grab diaper wipes out of my car that I had bought and forgot to bring inside to change my baby, as I was walking off the porch I was something out of the left corner of my eye. Immediately, I knew something was off, so I yelled for my husband who came outside and I told him grab the video recorder, We recorded everything. It’s very visible on the tape. Scary. It was moving violently around and then it was stay very still. It looked diamond shaped and flickered police lights with some green mixed in. Then it literally vanished instantly. Like it teleported is the only way I can describe it.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #138923). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

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 out front of my house waiting for Space X to launch a Falcon 9 rocket at 2109. From Lake City, Fl at night we can see a small flame as any launched rocket from KSC. Typically any launch travels from South to North. What I witnessed tonight was moving South away from me with a continuing flame. That’s why I thought it was tonight’s launch. That’s why I got notice that the launch was moved back to 2119. What I was watching was minutes before the launch took place.

The sun looked very odd to me. To shimmery and to flummery. So I took a picture the when I got home I filtered out the brightness. It's plain as day. I have the original and the filtered photos. I will send the original and the filtered.

Round bright light flashing red, white, blue and green traveling southeast at a slow rate of speed, wobbling back and forth visible for 45 mins. Viewed with binoculars you can see thousands of Lights in that object.

On a partially cloudy night while traveling on I-75 southbound just west of Lake City, FL I noticed a very bright light in the east. I first thought helicopter due to flying low just beneath the clouds but it sped up very rapidly and left a very bright white light trail behind it as it travelled west across the highway. The ufo suddenly stopped trailing and returned to original speed, then quickly disappeared west. I’ve been around military aircraft and nothing I’ve seen can move that fast. It was so fast I’ll never forget it. I would have dismissed it as just a new jet I never saw before, but it left a solid white light trail in the sky that lingered for a good 3 seconds and was itself lit up. The ufo was a bright light and I could not determine a shape.

Standing outside in my front yard this evening, on the phone, I noted several drones or what appear to be similar surveillance tasked aircraft when suddenly from the West moving due east - a light that behaved (aside from the obvious slow but visible movement East) as a planet would, devoid of twinkling, and having about the apparent magnitude of the planet Saturn would on a good night for observation via telescope. This light meandered very oddly modulating its North - South position on its trajectory constantly and in conjunction with its Eastward momentum. Strangely the apparent magnitude of the light became increasingly dim as it progressed further to the East, eventually requiring some deal of focus to locate and identify during its remaining trek slowly travelling with the equivalent of a multiple drug influenced, severely drunken man's synergism fueled wobbly gait over the horizon.
