On February 28, 1904, while patrolling the Pacific Ocean near San Francisco, Lt. Frank H. Schofield, a future Admiral in the U.S. Navy, along with his crew, witnessed three enormous, egg shaped objects swiftly traversing the sky. The objects were estimated to be over 100 feet in length and appeared to move with purpose, heading westward at an incredibly high speed. The unusual aspect of this sighting was the total lack of noise—no engine hum, propeller sounds, or any other auditory cues that would suggest a human-made aircraft. Additionally, the craft emitted no light and left no visible trail behind, making them even more puzzling to the observers. The sighting lasted for several minutes before the objects vanished into the horizon. Schofield and his crew, experienced seafarers, were left astonished by the display, as nothing in their knowledge of naval aviation or weather phenomena could explain what they had witnessed. Despite the credibility of the witnesses and Schofield’s later prominence, there was no official investigation by the government, perhaps due to the early date of the sighting, which preceded modern UFO interest.
