So what's behind the famous TV show Roswell? Have you heard of the Roswell UFO Incident? Well, it was the alleged recovery of alien debris, including corpses, from an object which crashed near Roswell, New Mexico, USA, on or about July 8, 1947. Since the late 1970s the incident has been the subject of intense controversy and conspiracy theories as to the true nature of the object which crashed. The United States military maintains that what was actually recovered was debris from an experimental high-altitude surveillance balloon belonging to a classified program named, Mogu.
However, many UFO proponents maintain that in fact a crashed alien craft and bodies were recovered, and the military then engaged in a cover-up. The incident has turned into a widely known pop culture phenomenon, making the name Roswell synonymous with UFOs. Generally, it ranks as one of the most publicized and controversial UFO incidents ever. In response to these reports, and after congressional inquiries, the General Accounting Office launched an inquiry and directed the Office of the Secretary of the Air Force to conduct an internal investigation. The result was summarized in two reports.
The first, was released in 1995 stated that the reported recovered material in 1947 was likely debris from a secret government program called Project Mogul, which involved high altitude balloons meant to detect sound waves generated by Soviet atomic bomb tests and ballistic missiles. The second report, was released in 1997 concluded that reports of recovered alien bodies were likely a combination of innocently transformed memories of military accidents involving injured or killed personnel; innocently transformed memories of the recovery of anthropomorphic dummies in military programs like Project High Dive conducted in the 1950s; and hoaxes perpetrated by various witnesses and UFO proponents. The psychological effects of time compression and confusion about when events occurred explained the discrepancy with the years in question. These reports were dismissed by UFO proponents as being either disinformation or simply implausible. However, significant numbers of UFO researchers discount the probability that the incident had anything to do with aliens.
Maybe because of the incident, the Roswell TV show was originated. American science fiction television series developed, produced, and co-written by Jason Katims. The sci-fi tv series debuted on October 6, 1999. The last episode aired around May 2002. In the United Kingdom, the TV series aired as both Roswell High and Roswell. The series pilot is based on the Roswell High young adult book series, written by Melinda Metz and edited by Laura J. Burns, who became staff writers for the television series. The show was set in Roswell, New Mexico, site of the 1947 UFO crash popularly known as The Roswell Incident. A story of four teenagers depicted as aliens who appear to be human. Central to the plot are Max Evans, Isabel Evans, Michael Guerin and Tess Harding, who survived the Roswell crash to hatch from incubation pods in 1989, emerging as six year old humans in appearance, but secretly aware of their difference. The relationships between the extraterrestrials and their human companions are a central theme, particularly between leading characters Max Evans and Liz Parker. The three seasons follow the extraterrestrial as they attempt to prevent being discovered by the FBI, the sheriff, and learn more about their alien powers. They also attempt to figure out how to get back to their home planet. The background plot suggests that the four were sent to Earth as cloned replacements for the royalty of Antar, an alien planet. Their counterparts died in a war, and the "Royal Four" were meant to one day return to Antar to save their race.
Till now there is no proofs that the UFO existed in Roswell. It may not be the best Sci-fi shows but you will definitely see yourself in one or more of the characters, and then you will relate in ways you would never have imagined. So enjoy watching the DVD collection of Roswell.
