In July of 1947 an event occurred that would become the most researched UFO event in history. After a severe thunderstorm in Roswell, New Mexico a man named Mac Brazel found some wreckage debris on a property he managed. Mac reportedly gathered together his unusual findings and brought it home to show his family. The debris included a foil-like material that could be crunched up and would lie back out flat seemingly unaffected, beams with odd hieroglyphics on them, and a lot of strong lightweight materials. Every material found was seemingly indestructible; it would not rip, bend, break, or burn.

It was not long before Mac decided to report to the local sheriff on his findings. The local sheriff in turn informed a nearby Army Air Base. The military immediately responded and within a few hours were being led by Mac himself to the area where he had collected the debris from. Major Jesse Marcel, Sr. was one of the military personal that went onsite with Mac and in the years before his death, admitted that what they saw that day was unlike anything he had ever seen. The commanding officer in Roswell, Colonel William Blanchard, had a statement released saying that the military had found the wreckage of a flying saucer. From there, the news went wild. The only thing that calmed the reports was in the days later where the military released a new, very different report. In the new statement the military had not stumbled upon a flying saucer, but only the wreckage of an ordinary weather balloon.

After searching further, a second crash site was found. This site yielded more amazing speculations then the first site. Eyewitnesses are the only proof that Roswell’s desert ground once held extra terrestrial evidence. Many people through first hand or second hand sources say that there was more then just unusual debris found at the crash site. They report that along with a disk much like a flying saucer, alien life forms were also discovered. All seem to report the same thing, small humanoids with heads that were large in proportion to their little bodies. They were said to have holes for their nose and ears, and some claim that these creatures were not all dead. There are reports of between three and four aliens were present at the crash site, all but one were dead.

It seems there was most certainly a cover-up concerning the fragments found in Roswell, New Mexico that July, but the question remains of what was being covered up. Many believe that it was covering up secret military operations. The amount of evidence is heavier on the UFO side of the argument, but that is because the military and government stand firm behind their statement that Roswell was simply the site of a weather balloon crash. Still many who claim to be eyewitnesses to the debris are adamant what they saw could only be extra terrestrial.
