It's out there...special report



In 1947, near the small farming town of Roswell, New Mexico , a local
farmer discovered the "wreckage" of what appeared to be some sort of
flying craft ...he took the wreckage to the sheriff, who took it to the army, who took it away and -some say - replaced it with wreckage from a high altitude weather balloon. ...









These would seem to be the only 'facts' in this story ..which has developed into a saga so complex and bizarre that it supports an entire industry in the "UFO capital of the US".

Whether it was a UFO , whether it contained an alien or two, and what it means are all questions still being debated here.





The UFO museum documented every twist and turn in the story in some
considerable detail ...it also contained some utterly mad stuff.

There was once a young reporter called Hugh,
who forgot then remembered his cue
He reports with a grin, stories that are thin,
We look forward to more that is new ... from Hugh...

Oi! Grab a gun - go on...blast the UFO down from the sky! Carefully, get a jet plane to blast it. Go on. Go on. Good report Hugh - I like it!
Hi Hugh - it's from Ethan. We had our last soccer game and I did really good defending, so Saturday went pretty well. I met your Cousin. He's 4 and he's really good.
And I'd just like to know if you'd like to come to my house when you get back? by Ethan Thompson.
