It's not compressed but "highly CONDENSED electricity", that is from captain Wilson case, hardly degravitation, it's all about gas bag, gas pipes and wings. Wilson is mentioned in many cases and he apparently did quite flying around, as he says 5 of these ships were built in a small town in Iowa and they were flying around testing them.

Quote from the book
On the night of April 22nd, a Texas farmer was awakened by a whirring sound and looked
outside. According to a contemporary newspaper account:
"(He saw) brilliant lights streaming from a ponderous vessel of strange proportions which rested on
the ground in his cornfield. (Upon going outside, he was) accosted by two men with buckets, who asked
permission to draw water from his well.
Mr. Nichols was kindly invited to accompany them to the ship. He conversed freely with the crew,
composed of six or eight individuals, about the ship. The machinery was so complicated that in his short
interview he could gain no knowledge of its workings. However, one of the crew told him the problem of
aerial navigation had been solved.
The ship or car is built from a newly discovered material that has the property of self-sustenance
in the air, and the
motive power is highly condensed electricity. He was informed that five of these ships
were built in a small town in Iowa. Soon the invention will be given to the public. An immense stock
company is now being formed, and within the next year the machine will be in general use.
Mr. Nichols lives atjosserand, Trinity County, Texas, and will convince any incredulous one by
showing the place where the ship rested". (83)

One name popped up repeatedly in connection with the occupants of landed mystery airships in
1897. That name was Wilson.
On April 19th, a man was thrown from his horse-drawn rig near the Texas-Louisiana border when
the animal was spooked by the appearance of an airship overhead. The craft then landed about 100 feet
away, and two occupants descended a rope ladder and walked up to the startled man.
"It was decidedly gratifying to find that they were plain, everyday Americans like myself," recalled
the witness. He said the two aeronauts apologized for causing his accident.
One of the pair, who introduced himself as Mr. Wilson, indicated he was the owner of the airship,
and his companion was Scott Warren. The witness accepted their invitation to go aboard the craft.
Inside, he met a Mr. Waters, described as the engineer, and a Mexican man he took to be the
cook. In a letter to a friend, the witness recounted his time aboard the airship. He described an 8-by-14-
foot cabin that reminded him of a smoking room on a train, with three reclining chairs anchored to the
floor and cushioned seats lining the walls. In addition, he said:
"There were a number of incandescent lamps about the walls and hanging from the ceiling. I
immediately concluded that the motive power was electricity, and so expressed myself to Mr. Wilson.
He said this was not the case, but that it was propelled and sustained by a gas which had the
property of great compressibility under a slight pressure and a correspondingly great power of expansion".
The witness said he elicited some details from Mr. Wilson about the secret gas and the engine it
powered:
"There was a receiver made of aluminum from which pipes passed to what appeared to me to be a
square box, at each end of which was a cylinder with an exhaust chamber in which worked a piston
attached to a very singularly constructed driving wheel like the sprocket of a bicycle. There were four
wheels, one within the other, and these Mr. Wilson called the accumulators".
The witness also said he learned something about how the airship was navigated:
"To elevate or depress the ship while flying through the air, a small wheel at the stern of the boat
is operated. This wheel was something like that in a ship's pilot house, but instead of having spokes, there
was an arrangement of magnets connected with wires to storage batteries. By passing the current over the
tire of the wheel, the operator was able to overcome gravity, thus elevating the ship. By passing the current
in the opposite direction and under the tire, the weight of the ship was increased and could sink like a shot
to the earth. And by passing the currents in opposite directions at the same time, the vessel would remain
horizontal at any distance from the earth.
At one end was a propeller working on a shaft connected with the sprocket wheels such as those
on a tugboat, except that the blades of this ship's propeller were enormous, being 10 feet in length. Wlxat
I thought were sails were canvas wings used in steering. Mr. Wilson stated that he was at work on a
contrivance that would obviate the necessity of using sails. The length of the ship was 75 feet by 25 feet".
When asked how fast his airship could go, Mr. Wilson estimated its top speed at around 160
miles per hour. He offered to take the witness aloft to search for the man's missing horses and rig, but the
witness opted to look for them on foot. (87)
A few hours later, a farmer and his son investigated a lighted object in a pasture near Beaumont,
Texas. It turned out to be a landed airship some 130 feet long and 20 feet wide with four men standing
outside it.
One of the men, who said his name was Wilson, requested some water for the craft, explaining:
"The ship carries a water ballast that is pumped to the bow when it is desired to bring the vessel
to earth, and to the stern when the course is skyward".
According to the witnesses, Wilson also revealed the following about his airship:
"(It) was propelled by four large wings, two on either side, and steered by propellers attached to
the bow and stern, electricity being the power used. The hull of the ship is made of steel and contains
compartments into which compressed air is pumped when the ship is in action".
The aeronaut identified as Wilson further stated that the craft was enroute from a flight over the
Gulf of Mexico to Iowa, where it and four others like it had been built. (88)
On the following day, a Texas sheriff came upon a landed airship on his property near the town of
Uvalde. The three occupants, one of whom said his name was Wilson, requested and received a supply of
water for their craft.
While the water loading was taking place, Mr. Wilson told the sheriff he was from Goshen, New
York and inquired about a former acquaintance, another Texas sheriff named Akers. Later, Sheriff Akers
told a reporter:
"I can say that while living in Fort Worth in '76 and '77, I was well acquainted with a man by
the name of Wilson from New York state and was on very friendly terms with him.
He was of a mechanical turn of mind, and was then working on aerial navigation and something
that would astonish the world. He was a finely educated man, then 24 years of age, and seemed to have
money with which to pursue his inventions, devoting his whole time to them.
From conversations we had while in Fort Worth, I think that Mr. Wilson, having succeeded in
constructing a practical airship, would probably hunt me up to show me that he was not so wild in his
claims as I then supposed".
When the water loading was complete, the witness said Wilson and the other aeronauts entered
the airship and "its great wings and fins were set in motion, and it sped away northward in the direction of
San Angelo." (89)
Three days after this incident (on April 23rd), two men said they discovered a landed airship near
the town on Kountze, Texas. They described it as cigar-shaped, and estimated it was 50 feet long and 20
feet wide. Next to the craft were its two occupants, who told the witnesses they were repairing a punctured
"air compartment." The aeronauts said their names were Jackson and Wilson. (90)
Lastly, it may only be a coincidence, but one of the California aero club members identified by
Charles Dellschau in his notebooks was a man named Wilson. (91)
In the final analysis, one large, unanswered question hovers over the entire secret airship inventor
scenario. If some lone genius or inventive group had perfected this cutting-edge technology in 1897, why
did no one ever come forward to reap the rewards of fame and fortune that would surely have resulted
from such an achievement?

Only mystery airship case (of terrestrial origin cause at least one is definitely an ET encounter) definitely using degravitation is the bearded man who inherited the secret from his uncle i shared.
As for parallel universes/worlds, absolutely and 100% or near 100% not. These are simply clandestine developments of our people, just like today techno-magic is being done behind the curtains.
