The "1561 Celestial Phenomenon Over Nuremberg" on This Day in History

This Day in History: The "1561 celestial phenomenon over Nuremberg" happened on this day in 1561 (of course). This was a mass sighting in the sky of what appears to be UFO's.

"On a seemingly normal morning on April 14th, 1561, chaos broke loose in the skies over Nuremberg. In the sky, seemingly out of nowhere, crosses, tubes, wheels and other strangely shaped multi-colored objects appeared over the city. They were said to number in the hundreds and appeared to be smoking. In fact, some even crashed into the ground (although their remains were never discovered). One thing that was noticeable? The smoke, which was apparently visible for miles. After the battle and the skies had somewhat cleared, it was said a large black, spear-like object was seen in the sky. Almost every witness that observed this strange event categorized it as a ‘battle’ or in some way aggressive." https://www.astonishinglegends.com/astonishing-legends/2019/2/25/nuremberg-1561

This is not even the oldest UFO event. Livy in 218 BC recorded "phantom ships" that were "gleaming in the sky."
