Light over Satellite beach, FL

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

I was at the beach at about 10pm on Black Friday. I was just looking at the stars and I was the only one at the beach access. All of a sudden, what I had previously thought was a star, a light in the sky, started growing much brighter. At first I thought it was a drone flying in off the ocean and sort of dismissed it. The light was a greenish sort of color. Then suddenly, the ball of light which was now decently bright, just shot down towards the horizon line and vanished. In fact it dissappeared before it even hit the ocean, which is when I knew something weird was going on. I immediately went to the next beach access over to see if someone else had seen it too, and there was only one guy there but he was on the phone and would not talk to me so Im not sure if he had also seen it. All I know is that there's no way it couldve been a plane or regular aircraft the way it moved, it shot down towards the horizon so quickly. It dissappeared right before reaching the ocean. It was hard to tell how far from the shore it was. I only decided to file this report after seeing a news story about a similar sighting in satellite beach earlier this year, and I swear to you the picture in that story looked just like what I saw but what I saw was more green and not orange. Once I saw that story I was kind of like man maybe what I saw was really something if I'm not the only one. So yeah that's basically it, just light no noise or anything.

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.
