UFO seen in Miami in 1956

Summary

A wingless object, similar to a silver and shiny blimp, was observed in Miami on February 20, 1956. The witness, a salesman, saw it for thirty seconds through binoculars, describing it as moving from north to south at a great height. The object disappeared by fading over the horizon. Although there was no radar contact, investigators considered it possibly a high-flying aircraft from Miami International Airport, located about 250 miles away. The lack of radar in the area was deemed irrelevant.
