Triangle over Sarasota, FL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was driving home from the gym pulling back into my neighborhood late at night. There were no other cars or people out as it was past 10:00. When I was headed down my street toward my house I noticed a set of three lights aligned in a triangular pattern. The lights came from the northeast and were moving toward the southwest. As the craft was overhead I stopped my car and looked up at it. It was moving extremely slow but very smoothly like it was just gliding over the ground. The weirdest part is that this set of triangular moving lights made no sounds whatsoever. I had the AC turned off, the radio turned off, and I even opened the car door for a second to see if I could hear what it was when I was getting freaked out. The whole time nothing, not even the slightest sound. When I looked really closely I realized that the craft was basically in the shape of a perfect triangle. Eventually it glided so far I couldn't see it anymore. I don’t know what! this could have been but it was completely silent and flying so low to the ground like maybe 100 feet off the roofs of the houses along the street it couldn't have been a drone, a plane, or a satellite. I have literally no explanation for this but I know what I saw.

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.

The single object travelled north to south parallel to the beach. Approximately < 1 mile from shore. There was no sound. It appeared to be a white light preceded by a cloud/mist. It lasted approximately 5 minutes and dissipated into the night sky. It was witnessed by 3 adults from a west facing window.

We were taking out the trash. I looked up and saw a decently close, and pretty big object in the sky, freezing and telling my husband to look. We both stopped astonished. It was like a glowing orb, kind of a bluish star color. It almost floated through the sky as if it was floating through water with jellyfish type movements. With a shape that seemed to change but also almost move like stingray wings would. It wasn't an exact shape though. Started from north west, headed south east, in Sarasota Florida from the intersection of Fruitville and Lockwood towards Fruitville and Beneva, getting smaller and further back from view site pretty quickly. We've never seen something like this I've been looking everywhere for answers and I found nothing close to it!
