Light over Leesburg, FL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
At 2115 hrs on 30 April 2020, I went outside to walk the dog and looked up to see seven lights travelling West to East (approximately) over Leesburg, Florida. In the space of a minute they faded from sight to the East, in procession. There may have been more before I looked up, as the farthermost light to the East was quick to disappear. The first six lights were in a line, the last was initially slightly behind and to one side, but by the time they disappeared it had caught up with the last light in line. Their brightness was less than Venus but probably slightly brighter than Sirius. It was not possible to assess the height or size of the UFOs

It was hovering in the sky and it was silent but soon as I pulled my phone out to record it picked up the signal of the orb for about 45 seconds until it started to go away in the sky and once it went away the orb started to get small and turn white like a star and then disappeared in the sky of the night I swear my phone has never made this sound before EVER until I caught this sighting it picked up a signal from it on my phone and a lot might think this is a joke who is reading this but I got it all on video as well I seen with my own two naked sober eyes

Sitting outside with my wife watching a pretty cloud formation near sunset. The top of the cloud was really bright so I thought I would take a picture of it. I actually took three pictures as the sun was going down and the colors were changing. After looking back at the pictures, I noticed an anomaly in the second picture that I didn’t see when taking the shot.

On Saturday morning, June 19, 2021, around 7am, I was standing out in my driveway and heard an aircraft approaching from the East going West directly overhead. I stood and watched it come into view. It looked dark, probably not dark gray, but more black, was triangular in shape with there being two projecting structures out the back area. I thought F-117 Nighthawk but then wondered could it have been an F-22 Raptor? It really didn't look exactly like those aircraft so I wondered maybe some new stealth aircraft. If not a stealth aircraft, unidentified flying object. I didn't see a projecting front part of the aircraft like I see in the F-22. I didn't see any flashing lights. It had a sound that wasn't like a typical aircraft and it seemed to lumber across the sky . I am in Leesburg, Florida where we have a lot of aircraft overhead every day. But, nothing like this!

Very bright light solid not pulsing like the airplanes in the sky. Was flying on a perpendicular path to the Orlando flight path. Smaller less intense light broke off and flew in a downward direction. It left off-shaped vapor trails that were also bright not sure if it was from the sunrise hitting them or not but other clouds were not as bright. Flew behind other clouds and was bright enough to still see. Passed beyond my sight on the horizon in a couple minutes. Rocket launch from Cape Kennedy at 05:57. PD

I was checking traps in the swamp by my home. I was walking a game trail when went around a big oak tree. After I walked around the tree it was all of sudden almost dark. Like and hour went by in a second of time. The ground starting almost pulsating or coming to life. Everything around me was glowing from the sphere like object in the trees. The object was translucent and seemed alive somehow. It had a golden glow inside and out. It hovered over the line and then slower ascended overhead. Within a few seconds the sphere completely vanished like instantly. I was terrified to say the least and haven't ever spoken of this till just recently when a friend told me he had seen something similar as a child. I started researching and found this site so here is my report. Hope it helps.
