The North Atlantic UFO Mystery

August 4th, 1950. Crew of the merchant ship “Marcala” are running a routine delivery from Nova Scotia to Delaware. It’s morning, and the skies are clear as they sail over the Hudson Canyon, the largest underwater chasm off the U.S. East Coast.


Over the next hour, they’d experience something so bizarre, it causes any rational investigator to question the phenomenon’s impact on human perception... and even time. Join us, as we go through little-known CIA and Air Force files, documenting an unidentified cylinder that appeared differently to three sailors on the same ship.

This video re-creates the sighting in 3D computer graphics software Blender. Why has this encounter been forgotten?
