UFO Seen by Sailors and Ship Crew

There have been many reported sightings of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs) or Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) by sailors and ship crews over the years. These sightings are often considered to be some of the most compelling and credible evidence of UFOs, as they involve trained observers with extensive experience and knowledge of the skies and the sea.

One of the most famous and well-documented UFO sightings by sailors occurred in 1954, when the crew of the Italian navy training ship, the Amerigo Vespucci, reported seeing a large, disc-shaped object hovering in the sky above them. The object was described as being approximately 300 feet in diameter and emitting a bright, white light. The crew observed the object for several minutes before it disappeared from view.

Another well-known incident involving sailors and a UAP occurred in 1971, when the crew of the USS Trepang, a nuclear submarine, observed a bright, glowing object moving rapidly through the water while on a routine patrol in the Arctic Ocean. The object was described as being roughly the size of an aircraft carrier and emitting a pulsating, greenish light. The crew attempted to follow the object, but it quickly disappeared from view.

In 2004, a group of sailors from the USS Nimitz, a US Navy aircraft carrier, reported seeing a strange, oblong-shaped object hovering in the sky above them while on a training mission off the coast of California. The object was described as being approximately 40 feet long and emitting a bright, white light. The crew attempted to approach the object, but it quickly accelerated and disappeared from view.

Another notable UAP sighting by sailors occurred in 1957, when the crew of the British ship, the SS King David, reported seeing a metallic, disc-shaped object hovering in the sky above them while sailing in the Indian Ocean. The object was described as being approximately 60 feet in diameter and emitting a bright, blue-white light. The crew observed the object for several minutes before it disappeared from view.

In 2014, the crew of the HMS Lancaster, a British Royal Navy frigate, reported seeing a strange, triangular-shaped object hovering in the sky above them while on a training mission in the Mediterranean. The object was described as being approximately 100 feet in length and emitting a pulsating, red light. The crew attempted to approach the object, but it quickly disappeared from view.

These are just a few examples of the many reported sightings of UAPs or UFOs by sailors and ship crews over the years. These sightings often involve highly trained and experienced observers who are familiar with the sky and the sea, and they are often considered to be some of the most compelling evidence of UFOs.
