Unknown over Aventura Miami, FL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
During a Doctors visit late afternoon on 10th floor,, I looked out the window and saw what looked to be a Drone and assumed it was 50 yards away and did not pay much attention, after few minutes I started to noticed how shiny it was and started to pay more attention. The Sun reflected off of the shiny object, so it was hard to determine Size but at first appeared to be 24" wide . Then it quickly dropped behind some trees next to a Lake over 400 yds away. So originally I thought it was 50 yds away but in actuality was over 400 yds away !!.. So factoring in distance and compared to the house behind the object I would guess it was the size of small car... I am guessing it was way to Big to be just a Drone. NOTE: I am an ex Tug Boat Captain and verified the distance after looking at a map..

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.
