Initial data
Chattanooga, Tennessee, TIMES, January 13, 1910, p.
Many people see how strange ships pass over Chattanooga.
An unknown airship flew over Chattanooga yesterday morning around 9: 30, moving in a northeasterly direction and on a straight course, as if on a long journey. An unusual sight was seen by many people in this city. The point of departure or destination of the mysterious aircraft is unknown.
Some of those who saw it described the vessel as cigar-shaped, which indicated that it was an airship. These people say that they also did not see it through the rings of cigar smoke and that they were not victims of an impossible dream.
It is believed that the airship seen yesterday over the city will be at least the second to fly over this region in a few weeks. Some Chattanoogans recently saw a strange object in the sky and firmly held the opinion that it, like yesterday's unknown visitor, was an air car.

AIRSHIP IN THE AIR
Many See Strange Craft Pass Over Chattanooga.
An unknown airship passed over Chattanooga yesterday morning about 9:30 o'clock, proceeding in a northeasterly direction and in a straight course, as if on a long journey. The unusual sight was witnessed by many people in this city. Starting point or destination of the mysterious aerial craft is not known.
Some who saw it described the vessel as cigar-shaped, which would indicate that it was a dirigible balloon. These people say they did not see it through rings of cigar smoke, either, and that they were not victims of a pipe dream.
The airship seen yesterday above the city is thought to be at least the second to pass over this region within a few weeks. Some Chattanoogans saw a strange object in the sky recently and strongly leaned to the opinion that it, like the unknown visitor of yesterday, was an aerial machine.
Hypotheses
The airship
The aircraft lighter than air, which is a combination of the balloon with the mover (usually a screw with an electric motor or internal combustion engine) and the system of the orientation control (steering control), through which the airship can move in any direction regardless of the direction of air flow.
The shape of the airships are divided into:
