UAP Project Baseball T-Shirt

Caption: In 1947, amateur pilot Kenneth Arnold was flying over Washington’s Cascades mountain range when he saw a “tremendously bright flash.” Then, another nine flashes in rapid succession appeared. Arnold described their strange manner of flight as "like speed boats on rough water." News of Arnold’s sighting spread quickly, and the press latched on to Arnold's description, leading to the birth of the phrase "flying saucer." Arnold’s report is often credited as sparking a wave of UAP sightings over the following few months. However, according to the Project Blue Book files, the busiest month for sightings in 1947 was June. Across the country, people were convinced they had seen UAPs.
