Six years before the Wright brothers achieved powered flight, witnesses across Chicago reported something that should not have existed.

In April 1897, dozens of people watched a long, cigar-shaped craft glide silently across the night sky. Bright lights swept over rooftops. Some claimed they saw strange figures aboard.

Chicago was not alone.

From Texas to Illinois, hundreds of witnesses described mysterious “airships” crossing the skies—years before powered flight became reality.

There were no inventors.
No blueprints.
No explanation.

So what was flying over America in 1897?

In this episode of Book of Beyond, we explore one of the most intriguing historical UFO mysteries ever recorded.
