Balloon seen over Kentucky mountains in 1891
Report from the Flat Rock precinct notes a large dark object approaching on Thursday evening. A balloon with a long cylindrical car was observed, two figures inside, and a locking bottle dropped containing a French text about the Republique airship voyage. De Favre translates the message as a Paris expedition planned for three years to study topography with French capital support.
