Flight history is really messed up. You have no idea how fabricated flight history is. Let me briefly explain:

According to our "historical narrative", the floating lantern was invented sometime in the 3rd century.

Then get this, the first hot air balloon (using the same technology as the floating lantern) was invented in the mid 1700's. That is over a THOUSAND YEARS after the floating lantern was invented.

Are we supposed to believe it took flight engineers over 1,000 years to make a slightly bigger floating lantern for people to stand on?

And guess what? We have some book from the mid 1700's that describes a battle in the sky......in the year 103 (on our calendar). Interesting information we have here.

I'd like to clearly state this now: Not aliens, don't fall for that. It's more than likely just semi-regular people flying around bombing cities.

This is serious ammo for the suppressed 1800's dirigible theories.
