FATA MORGANA - Ship sailing in the sky near Kitakyushu Japan

Alright, so check this out! FATA MORGANA is this wild optical illusion that happens when you're standing on land, looking out over the ocean, and you see a ship that looks like it's floating above the horizon. It's not magic, though—it’s science at work. Fata Morgana - Ship sailing in the sky as viewed from Kitakyushu Here’s the lowdown.
