Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Just a bright white light that seemed round in shape. Brighter than a star or planet but not as bright as the moon.

Size of Object(s)

It seemed far away and the palm of my hand would cover it. So 1-2 inches I guess.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

It was about a quarter mile away and just above tall pine trees that were a few yards away.

Description of Area / Surroundings

It was over the Pensacola Bay just south of the Bay bridge (hwy 98 I think). There is a Navy base near there.

Full Description & Details

My friend and I were driving in her car going West towards Pensacola Bay. In the distance we saw a bright light in the sky that wasn't moving. It was night time so all we could make out was the bright light. We drove closer to it and ended up in a neighborhood in the Gulf Breeze area. By that time it seem to be hovering over Pensacola Bay high up in the sky. Then suddenly the light went out and nothing could be seen or heard. It's been a long time and that's all I can remember.

Also want to say that what I saw didn't look like the famous images from the area - maybe because it was too far away and I couldn't see the details.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

It wasn't a natural object because the light went out/dissappeared. It wasn't an airplane or helicopter because it didn't move and there was no sound. Too close to be a satellite. If it was man-made it wasn't anything I'm familiar with.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I'm not sure what I saw but I know I saw something that I couldn't identify. Whether it was alien or top secret military who knows. I think many ufo sightings/images probably do have logical explanations but I also think it is possible that some other worldly objects could be visiting. I don't have enough proof to believe one way or the other.
