Roswell 1

The sources explore the 1947 Roswell incident, comparing the initial "flying disc" report to the military’s weather balloon retraction. They highlight the conflict between eyewitness claims of alien bodies and exotic materials versus the official finding that the debris belonged to Project Mogul, a top-secret balloon program for monitoring Soviet nuclear tests. Ultimately, they document how the event evolved into a global symbol of government secrecy and enduring UFO mythology.
