On July 2, 1947, Mac Brazel, a rancher northwest of Roswell, New Mexico, discovered strange wreckage of a metallic object on his ranch. He contacted military authorities who investigated the site, and removed the wreckage. The first military reports referenced a mysterious, Unidentified Flying Object. These reports were later rescinded, leading to wide speculation and claims of a massive government cover-up of  the discovery of UFOs from outer space. It also sparked fear of a UFO invasion and rumors of other incidents. That speculation is alive and well today.
