天空飘着一艘船

A man looked out to sea from a village in southwest England, and saw a giant ship seemingly suspended in mid-air over the water. It wasn't his eyes deceiving him, but a rare weather phenomenon that causes the optical illusion. It was a "superior mirage" caused by conditions more typical in the frigid arctic than off the English coast.

一名男子在英格兰西南部的一个村子望向大海时看到一艘巨大的船似乎悬浮在水面之上的半空中。不是他的眼睛在欺骗他，而是一种罕见的天气现象导致了这种视觉幻象。这是一个“上蜃景”，更常见于寒冷的北极地区环境，而不是英国海岸。
