Aerial view in Cedar Key Florida

Summary

A witness in Cedar Key, Florida, reported seeing a bright white object, about the size of a dime held at arm's length, for two minutes. The object was flying south, appearing at a 20-degree elevation and disappearing over the horizon. Although a balloon or aircraft was considered, investigators concluded it might have been an aircraft due to the sighting duration, the straight southbound path, and the heavy air traffic in the area. However, the possibility of an unidentified object was not completely ruled out.
