The Mysterious Roswell UFO Incident of 1947

In 1947, when a local rancher claimed to have found a flying saucer in his field, Roswell became the center of conspiracy theories and a tourist destination for anyone in search of little green men.

You're all on the watch list now.

My grandparents live in Roswell, NM and I visit them. I love it there! Our family are strong believers in aliens especially my Grandma.

If it was a Air Force balloon why they need to take it in to do studies on it? CAP🗣🗣

When I worked with a fine elder gentleman, he asked me if I heard of this story in 1947 I said yes. Then he said if I’ve seen the picture of the little being on the paper, I said yes. Then he told me that it was erased from that time. Why does reality hide in a place secret from real life, and who can see is beaten up for holding his beliefs. I dive in unknown to get my piece of reality because I know how flexible space was meant to be.

Well we aren't dying from aliens yet so that's good

My wife and I run the UFO Spacewalk right around the corner from the museum. Novelties, local art, and a black light adventure through space! Come visit!

If it was just weather ballon wreckage then why did they had to fly it out for further inspection and all the national security, just for wood sticks and foild. Makes no sense. I belive something was found and to this date it still a secret.

[somethingsomewhere.]

It doesn’t make any sense to keep it a secret tho, if they are real, nothing would change just by the fact that we would know they’re out there. There has to be more to it than just not wanting the public to know.

1. Did the alleged UFO reign down in a fiery loud crash where many heard it? 2. Did it fall to earth like 99.9 percent of weather balloons without loud crash and fire? These two questions provide for the correct answer - Loud crash UFO - a whimper of a floating device a balloon. Did the farmer find debris or was he drawn to it by a loud crash?

7 years later they admit they have a aircraft not of this world.

Read the book - "The Day After Roswell" by Col. Philip J. Corso. Case closed? These guys should check it out. I found this book to be a great read, and immediately re-read it! Give it a try. It's inexpensive on eBay.

The Roswell crash was a Trojan horse of technology.

Florida men!!! We have Florida men's help

I wonder if during the night of the crash two separate events happened? There was a thunderstorm with lightning, lost Mogal#4 was in the area drifting in the upper atmosphere (a practically clear weather balloon) that was really designed to listen for any nuclear activity in Russia, and a stray UFO attempting to look at Roswell AFB. The UFO didn't see the balloon due to the weather and ran into it. It lost attitude control and went down. So now there were two types of debris at the crash site. Researchers describe a Furrow in the ground stretching for hundreds of feet. An anomaly impossible for a light weight balloon with a foil radar target to make. So something had to hit the ground of sufficient mass, speed and weight to make the furrow during deceleration. I'm not sure of what to think about the debris field described in reports.

I've been interested in this "case" for many years and for many reasons. If indeed there were space/time travelers in that craft, my heart breaks for them. My curiosity is piqued-- what were they attempting? It has been seventy-three years since the crash--if the voyageurs were sailing through time as well as space, who knows how long it actually took them to arrive on Earth? Somewhere in the back of my mischief-making mind I retain the image of three teenagers out for a joyride who lost control, fatally, of their vehicle. Whoever they were, I wish we could have met. Maybe someday, in another "Time."

I just finished watching all 3 seasons of roswell not knowing it was based on reality.

[mikew.inversegravitycraft]

If the roswell crash didn’t happen then why have they been threatening people who seen it since the crash

All good but what I cannot understand is that as a matter of fact all extraterrestrial objects and subjects are obligatory highly radioactive. A whole bunch of people was involved in the cleaning of the crash site so it would be apparent that the concerned could have developed cancerous diseases no? I do not understand that part of the story.

[andrewredding]

Crash wasn't in Roswell, was in Corona and he then took it to Roswell to report it
