The Legend of the Great Airship Mystery
In the late 19th century, decades before the Wright brothers’ first flight, mysterious “airships” were reportedly seen cruising the skies across the United States. While many sightings occurred in the Midwest and West, New England had its own share of unexplained appearances.
In 1909, newspapers across Massachusetts, Vermont, and New Hampshire buzzed with stories of a glowing, cigar-shaped craft flying silently over towns and harbors. Witnesses described bright searchlights sweeping across the countryside, strange humming noises, and even human-like figures aboard. These “airship” sightings predated any known aircraft technology and sparked public speculation about inventors, military experiments, or even visitors from beyond Earth.
To this day, no inventor or government agency has claimed responsibility for the 1909 New England “airship flap.” Historians call it one of the earliest mass UFO sighting waves in U.S. history — decades before Roswell — making it a true New England Mystery.
