The term "flying saucer" became popular in 1947 after a report by businessman Kenneth Arnold, who claimed to see nine disc-shaped objects while flying his plane near Mount Rainier in Washington. His description led the media to label such sightings as "flying saucers," and the term quickly entered popular culture. This marked the beginning of widespread interest in unidentified flying objects (UFOs) as a phenomenon.
