It was a hot summer evening on June 14, 1947 in Roswell New Mexico, when William Ware Brazel noticed some debris from what it looked like a plane crash. Brazel was astonished to find out that there were no words to be found in any parts of the debris, which was something indeed curious. Also, no strings or wires were found indicating a unique structure. He notified the Sheriff's office and the latter informed the Roswell Army Air Field. The next day, Army officials came and after inspecting the debris and taking photos, they gathered all the material and left. On July 8, 1947, the Roswell Daily Record however announced the crash and capture of a flying saucer. The same day the Roswell Army Air Field also issued a press release re-affirming the news; it stated that the Air Base personnel had recovered a crashed flying disk. However the following day, Commander in Chief of the 8th Air Force, Roger M. Ramsey played down the news of a UFO crashing, giving a new explanation: It was a high altitude balloon form a Top Secret program named Mogul; the program involved the release of high altitude balloons in order to detect sound waves generated from Soviet atomic bombs. During the press conference, parts from debris were shown to reporters in order to support the official Army view that it was actually a balloon. The Media accepted Ramsey's explanation as self evident and the incident was quickly forgotten. Then, in 1978 Major Jesse Marcel who was present at the gathering of the debris and was also photographed holding some of them, made a revelation: The debris was actual parts from a flying disk, and the US government had actually hidden the truth from the public. Since then, Roswell remains a highly controversial issue as to the true nature of the object that actually crashed in 1947, in Roswell, New Mexico. The following poll (www.jeebboo.com) was created: "Did an alien spacecraft crash on Roswell in 1947?" A combined of almost 73% of the Jeebboo members seem to believe that that debris in Roswell was of extraterrestrial nature. More specific, 24,45% firmly believe that a UFO crashed and the whole incident was a result of a government cover-up ("Absolutely Yes"), while another 48,51% consider the possibility of a UFO crash as highly likely ("Anything is possible"). Thus, the majority of the Jeebboo members seem to reaffirm the fact that the debris gathered from Roswell was actually from a spacecraft. Proponents of this theory make some logical arguments: The government had to deny the fact -that a UFO had actually crashed- in order to avoid a mass hysteria (try to remember the mass hysteria that followed the radio adaptation from H.G. Wells' "War of the Worlds" by Orson Welles - 4 million Americans rushed to the streets in order to save themselves, and chaos prevailed for 2 days); also, the UFO debris gave America the competitive advantage over the Soviet Union in the technology area: The US Army by closely analyzing the debris would use them in order to build new planes or weapons and stay one step ahead from the hatred "Reds". Finally, 27% of the Jeebboo members remain skeptics about the whole incident and deny the existence of a UFO spaceship. They argue that it was indeed a Top Secret experiment that involved a balloon. The fact that people were astonished with the nature of the debris, can be attributed to the fact that since project Mogul was a Top Secret, it was only natural for people to easily pass the debris of experimental US Army material for UFO technology debris. Most Jeebboo members agree that Roswell was actually a UFO crash - what do you think? Please send us your comments..
