For dem af jer, der ikke
følger specielt opmærksomt med på UFO-fronten, er
her et lille sammentræk af begivenhederne ved Roswell.
I juli 1947 faldt et eller andet
ned fra himlen ved Roswell, og der gik senere rygter om, at
militæret havde fulgt en UFO over radar i tre-fire dage, og
havde set den forsvinde omkring Roswell den 4. juli. Mindst én
lokal landmand hævdede at have set noget falde fra himlen, og
det var en dags tid eller to senere, da nogle andre lokale
landmænd fandt de usædvanligt udseende rester af noget,
de blev enige om, var enten en UFO eller et militæreksperiment. |
For those of you who don't
follow developments on the UFO front real closely, here is a little
summary of the Roswell incident.
In July 1947 something or other
fell from the sky near Roswell, and later rumors abounded that the
military had been following a UFO by radar for three to four days,
only to see it disappear around Roswell on July 4th. At least one
local farmer claimed to have watched something fall out of the sky,
and it was a day or two later when some other ranchers found the
strange looking remains of something they agreed was either a UFO or
part of some military experiment. |

Writing on the wreckage

De meldte deres fund til
sheriffen, området blev afspærret af myndighederne og
finkæmmet, og den 8. juli, 1947, blev det meddelt i pressen, at
fundet var en flyvende tallerken. Nogle få timer senere blev
den første pressemeddelelse trukket tilbage og erstattet med
en rettelse - UFOen var ikke en flyvende tallerken, men en vejrballon. |
They reported what they had
found to the sheriff, the area was closed off by authorities and
culled over, and on July 8, 1947, it was reported in the press that a
flying saucer had been found. Just a few hours later the first press
release was recinded and replaced with a correction - the UFO was not
a flying saucer, but a weather balloon. |

Men en bedemand i Roswell blev
tilkaldt af militæret og blev hurtigt smidt ud igen, da han ved
et tilfælde fik øje på nogle besynderlige
vragrester bag i en ambulance. Men en sygeplejerske på
militærbasen mødtes med bedemanden den næste dag
og fortalte ham, at hun havde set døde eller sårede
rumvæsener blive bragt til militærbasen, og hun tegnede
dem for ham.
Det er aldrig blevet endeligt
afgjort, hvad man fandt i Roswell i 1947, og formelle dokumenter om
hændelsen synes at være sporløst forsvundet. |
But a mortician in Roswell was
called in by the military and was quickly kicked out again, when he
happened to notice some peculiar wreckage in the back of an
ambulance. But a nurse from the military base met with the mortician
the following day and told him that she had seen dead or wounded
alien beings being brought to the military base, and she was able to
make a sketch of them for him.
It has never been solidly
established what was found in Roswell in 1947, and formal
documentation about the incident seems to have disappeared without a trace. |

Museet har også en lille
afdeling tilegnet studiet af markcirkler.
Den herunder til venstre, der
ligner et snefnug, dukkede efter sigende op på en mark i
løbet af mindre end to timer. |
The museum also has a division
for the study of crop circles.
The one below on the left that
looks like a snowflake is said to have appeared in a field in the
span of under two hours. |
