Teardrop over Ruskin (near), FL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Driving on 19th Ave when I thought the moon was rather bright until it hit me that the moon wasn't full but a crescent. I kept looking at the insanely bright light. As I was parallel to it I saw the triangular, slightly rounded more teardrop shape with bright lights on all three points I thought it passed over me but never showed on the other side or behind me.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #147154). 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.
