Initial data
The first observation occurred in November 1896 in Sacramento, California, when hundreds of eyewitnesses observed a steady light floating in the sky overhead, attached to some large vessel. Some said they heard voices singing from the ship. One of the eyewitnesses, R.L. Lowry, said that he heard a man giving orders:
"Throw it higher, it will touch the spire!".
According to Lowery, the airship had a cigar-shaped body with wheels on the sides and seemed to be driven by two men sitting on a frame similar to a bicycle.
Over the next six months, sightings moved eastward across the country, reports were received as far as Chicago. In total, about 150 cases of surveillance were recorded in 20 states. Then, in April 1897, as suddenly as it began, the observations abruptly stopped.

The shape of the airships are divided into:
