    The UFO hoax from Roswell 1947 was specifically intended by the USA government.

    Contrary to the popular belief, the government did not try to cover it up, but actually propagated the myth of the crashed UFO.

    Mass hysteria is in the government's best interest.

    First of all, this is amazing, SIMON answering SIMON...

    secondly, believe me, this is the same subject I have been reading a lot.

    Actually, some UFO crashed near Roswell, New Mexico, in June or July 1947. Some says it was Nazi's space craft, US Govt. claimed that it was just a debris of experimental high-altitude balloon.

    General public doesnt know much about it.

    A top secret spy balloon, used for monitoring soviet nuclear tests, crashed and debris was recovered. When the local press started running flying saucer stories, the USAF grasped the chance to use that as a distraction.

    It is now all well documented. Try Joe Nickel or Oberg's websites.

    It was an experimental weather device most likely. We were testing a whole bunch of stuff back then. There is plenty of proof if you avoid the ridiculous conspriacy books which are truths mixed with stretching accounts and outright lies and created fantasies.

    co-incidentally the start of the electronic age, suddenly transistors and microprocessors appeared out of nowhere as the properties of semiconductors and silicon circuits had not even been suspected let alone investigated before 1947, lasers also suddenly appeared in the late 40s

    well the goverment says its was a weather balloon and there is some evidence to suggest that it was but there is also evidence to say it was a alien craft. when witnesses saw the craft they said it was huge and on fire and it made a big crash. now i dont think that a weather balloon could have be on fire and made a big crash. unless the balloon had large metal inside it. but what i think is that a craft did crash and the goverment was soo quick to clear it up. they found 2 aliens dead then they took them too area 51 and stayed for some years then they got moved to a new base dont know which one. but most recently it kinda explains the new american weapons like a lazer weapon that the american have been developing and planes that are undetected by radar. which is i find hard to think that humans could have invented this. but its up to you what you think most people think i/we are crazy.

  • It could have been a variety of things but I highly doubt that aliens were involved. If aliens were smart enough to travel thousands of light years just to get here, it's safe to assume that they'd also be smart enough to avoid crashing.

    ANY PERSON THAT EXIST WITH AN OUNCE COMMON SHOULD KNOW THAT THE INCIDENT AT ROSWELL WAS REAL AND THAT A UFO DID CRASH AND ALIENS BODIES WERE TAKEN INTO CUSTODY BY THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT............ NOW THE POINT I WOULD LIKE TO RESOLVE IS DID THEY REALLY CRASH OR WERE THEY SHOT DOWN..................................

    Aliens crashed so the government had to make up a story of "what happened"...
