Roswell alien
Roswell alien, computer artwork. The alien is wearing a vest referring to the Roswell incident, which took place near Roswell, New Mexico, USA. It was near here on the evening of 2 July 1947 that many UFO sightings were reported during a thunderstorm. Next morning, a rancher, Mac Brazel, discovered strange wreckage in a field. When the impact site was located, a UFO craft and alien bodies were allegedly found. The official explanation was that it was a crashed weather balloon. Conspiracy theorists believe that the true events were kept secret. There is now a tourist industry in Roswell, which includes the International UFO Museum and Research Center, and an annual UFO festival.
