Dirigible that crashed in New Jersey?

The Hindenburg was a German Zeppelin airship that crashed and burned on May 6, 1937, in Manchester Township, New Jersey, United States. The disaster resulted in the deaths of 36 people, including 13 passengers and 22 crew members.

The Hindenburg was flying from Frankfurt, Germany, to Lakehurst Naval Air Station in New Jersey when it caught fire while attempting to land. The cause of the fire is still unknown, but it is believed that a spark from the airship's engines ignited hydrogen gas that was leaking from the airship's skin.

The fire spread rapidly, and the airship was consumed in flames within minutes. The passengers and crew members who survived the initial fire were killed when the airship crashed to the ground.

The Hindenburg disaster was a major setback for the development of commercial airships. The disaster led to the cancellation of many airship construction projects, and it effectively ended the era of commercial airship travel.
