An upcoming exhibition at the Mori Art Museum in Tokyo entitled "The Universe and Art: Princess Kaguya, Leonardo Da Vinci, Teamlab" will include original depictions of the Utsuro-bune, a "hollow ship" that allegedly washed ashore in Hitachi Province in 1803.

The boat was reportedly inhabited by a beautiful woman who couldn't speak Japanese. Some conspiracy theorists believe the legend describes a UFO encounter. In pop culture, the legend of the Utsuro-bune inspired the 3 episode "Sea Bishop" arc of Mononoke.
