Light over Tarpon springs, FL
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Sitting in my back yard looking for shooting stars and what I thought were planets started to slowly move around. I thought I was losing my mind so I started to record it. The longer I watched the more I felt like I saw start to move. It freaked me out there seemed like there was so many. At 18:00 minutes into 1 or the videos I took a low flying one came over me. I reported seeing a metal ball in the sky not long ago, I think these are the same! They move almost like they are floating. They are a decent size. No sound. Observatory like behavior. The videos I have were unsuccessful uploading due to the file size it says…You’re welcome to contact me if you have another way I can send it!
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #176199). 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.
