Here there is an excellent video that offers a convincing natural explanation for the famous “UFO Battle of Nuremberg of 1561”, which many ufologists and supporters of the Ancient Astronaut Theory claim to be evidence of the presence of extraterrestrial spaceships in Earth’s skies in ancient times:

I’m not opposed to the idea of ancient battles between alien fleets. In fact, one idea I find particularly fascinating is the possibility that the giant impact crater near Chicxulub, Mexico — the one most scientists believe was caused by an asteroid impact and is linked to the extinction of the dinosaurs — might actually have an extraterrestrial origin.
According to a hypothesis I came across online several years ago, that crater could be the result of a massive orbital battle between two alien civilizations that took place around 65 million years ago. The idea is that during this ancient conflict, the flagship of one of the fleets fired a powerful weapon at the flagship of the opposing fleet, but the shot missed and ended up striking Earth instead. The impact of that weapon would have been what caused the massive destruction and led to the extinction event. Of course, this is pure speculation and there’s no real evidence to support it, but I think it’s a really interesting hypothesis and I’m willing to entertain it.
However, even though I don’t reject the idea of ancient alien battles in Earth’s skies and low orbit, I’ve always been very skeptical about the Nuremberg case. And since the explanation offered in this video makes way more sense to me, I’m more than happy to share it. Enjoy!
