Horseshoe Shaped Silver UFO Hovering Over Lakeland Florida

Date: October 1962

Time: Afternoon.

Number of witnesses: 3
Number of Objects: 1
Shape of Objects: Horseshoe.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: I was living in Lakeland at the time, the Cuban missile crisis was going on and the sky was full of bombers, some had 8 small jets surrounding each one. They were in the air continually then one day there was none.

The sky was a perfect blue, no clouds and we were playing outside. At the same time we realized there was a hum, or vibration that made our hair on our arms tingle, almost like static when lightning is in the air. We all looked up at same time and saw this half circle/horseshoe shaped silver object just hovering.

It had five dome shaped lights hanging on the bottom and they alternated colors, dull green to dull red. It was about the altitude of a small plane might fly at. It hovered and maybe a minute later the UFO left suddenly.

I became a UFO fanatic, curious now after all this time we still don't have anything like that technology. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing two UFOs in my life, both thought changing.
