Triangle over Palmetto, FL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were driving towards Bradenton just crossing the green bridge it hovered just on top and I’m sure many other drivers saw it as well I even put the widow down for my sibling to record.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #151376). 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.

Out for our daily walk at 7:30 AM. Noticed an irregularity in the southeast sky. The sky was completely clear, except for what looked like a square/rectangle portal type opening. On one side of the portal it was like a white jet stream and on the other it was rainbow colors or what resembled ozone colors. We watched as the portal appeared to close and the color dissipated.

In backyard watching community fireworks from a distance and saw a orange orb in the sky that moved to a couple different spots very quick. It would stay still then it took off extremely fast and we instantly knew what we saw but knew no one would believe us. started hearing similar stories so decided to post it here 6 months later.

It was absolutely something that had me and my co-worker puzzled on what it was we just saw. When they scattered, they slowly went towards the ground in all different directions. We got video of the whole thing.

While stepping out to close lani windows I noticed to yellowish lights south of my location. They seemed to be stationary for 15 second and then began to pirouette and point to the west and started moving at nominal speed when one light moved to the south the other continued west. The light headed south just disappeared in an instant while the other continued westerly and disappeared. There were no flashing lights at all so don't believe it was airplanes. I heard no sound from them whatsoever.

My husband and I were sitting outside by our canal, super clear, dark night, when we saw a fireball coming from the South heading North. I asked my husband, “What is that?” He looked up and said, “Wow, that’s weird – looks like something on fire.” It was totally quiet as it passed over us, straight line, no jumping around, seemed about as high as a helicopter, no tail, looked like moving orange flames in an orb shape moving about the speed of a small plane. I took a quick picture before it passed behind a large 2-story house and out of our view, but the picture doesn’t do it justice.
