SIGHTING: KEY WEST, FLORIDA (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"I am a Commercial Boat Captain and drive at night often. I do not drink or do drugs and hesitant to say this.On night approaching Boac Chica naval airstation I saw a very large light come out of the sky at a mechanical 45 degree angle and stop and abruptly move horizontally for about 1/4 mile then stop and hover.I thought I may have had a scratch on the lens of my protective glasses.As I cleaned them, I saw the hovering light with the naked eye. When Ireturned the glasses to my face I saw the light in the same place and height..approx. 2,000 feet. There was no sound or movement and I checked my glasses again and when I returned to the objects' position it had disappeared. I came back in the morning to see if the Navy was doing anything unusual and saw nothing.I noticed the broad radar array at the base and realized one dome was in very close proximity to my sighting. I saw no other reports in the newspaper or anywhere else so I kept this to myself. I seem to relive this moment each time I pass by this spot and look for it to appear again. I am sure of what I saw and I do not recognize it as a normal occurance."
