Do you believe in aliens? Have little green men visited our small, blue planet? Your answer to those questions is probably "no, of course not!" But others might disagree.
On June 14, 1947, W.W. Brazel and his son were driving through the desert near Roswell, New Mexico, where they saw a strange wreckage. A few weeks later Brazel returned to collect some pieces of it, which he took to Roswell's sheriff, George Wilcox.
Neither man knew what the wreckage was, and so Wilcox reported it to the army. After seeing the wreckage for themselves, the army announced that it was a "flying disc." Then, the next day, they quickly changed their story, saying that the wreckage was of a weather balloon.
But it was too late: the world had already started to believe that the "flying disc" was an alien spaceship. And some people still believe it to this day.
So did aliens really land in Roswell? That depends on who you ask. But according to Roger Launius, from the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum, the army may have first encouraged the idea of a "flying disc" because, at the time, doing so was easier than admitting what they now say is the truth — that the wreckage came from a secret army balloon used to spy on Russia.
Whatever happened out there in the desert, Roswell's economy is happy that it did. Today the city is home to a number of popular tourist attractions, such as the Roswell Spacewalk, the International UFO Museum & Research Center, and AlienFest — a UFO Festival held by the city each year.
🌏Summary🌏
您相信有外星人嗎? 1947年時,一對父子開車經過新墨西哥州羅斯維爾的沙漠,他們在那裡看到一個奇怪的殘骸。之後拿給羅斯維爾的治安官,進而呈報給軍方。軍方宣布那是一個「飛行圓盤」。 但隔天,他們馬上改口說那個殘骸是「探空氣球」的一部分。可是,為時已晚。全世界許多人已相信這個「飛行圓盤」就是外星人的飛船。不管在沙漠中究竟發生了什麼事,羅斯維爾已成為了外星人主題旅遊的聖地。羅斯維爾太空漫步、國際UFO博物館及研究中心等都是這個小鎮著名的觀光景點。
