SCIENCE LIFE RECAPPING NEWSTORIES
Roswell Daily Record July 8, 1947 |
What really happened on that warm July, Roswell night in 1947? Surely
you have heard of the incident in Roswell New Mexico that has remained a
controversy till this day. There is no question that something crashed
to the ground that night, but there seems to be no hard drawn conclusion
among the different theories. Was it a weather balloon or an alien UFO?
An abundance of people still say that the military and government has
many questions they've yet to answer in relation to the Roswell crash.
They claim there was an enormous conspiracy to cover up what really
happened. Whatever it was that crashed that night left a trail of debris
reaching almost a mile long and several hundred feet in width. First
discovered by a local ranch manager, the debris was recovered by the
509th Bomb Group Intelligence Office with Major Jesse Marcel at the
lead.
Immediately upon their return to the southern Nevada Area 51
base there was an official press release stating that debris from some
kind of flying disc had been recovered. It had been written by Lt.
Walter Haut, and a newspaper story followed on July 8th with the
headline “RAAF Captures Flying Saucer on Ranch in Roswell Region”.
However, that press release was almost immediately pulled and
replaced by another stating that the crash was only that of a weather
balloon, and had nothing to do with an alien UFO. Lt. Walter Haut never a
made a big deal of it, and always was nonchalant about the incident
when interviewed over the years. He died in December of 2005; supposedly
leaving the truth behind in an affidavit that was only to be opened
after he had passed away.
