The Roswell affair and extraterrestrial life.
Release date: October 14, 1992
Period: 1947 - 2004
These visitors from the sky
Are we visited by beings from space? Is there another form of life in the universe? In Canada, as elsewhere in the world, hundreds of sightings of unidentified flying objects and testimonies of contacts with extraterrestrials are casting doubt. While many stories are hoaxed or related to natural or human phenomena, others remain inexplicable.
The Roswell affair and extraterrestrial life
Are we alone in the universe? To answer this question, NASA launches, as part of the 500th anniversary of the discovery of America by Christopher Columbus, the largest space project ever conducted on the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. Starting October 12, 1992, the High Resolution Microwave Survey (HRMS) will send millions of radio waves across the Universe using huge radio telescopes.
However, the project's $ 100 million, ten-year bill is too salty for the US Congress, which calls for its cancellation in 1993. The Private Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) will take over .
Journalist Gilles Gougeon then recalls the spectacular plot of the Roswell affair. During the evening of July 2, 1947, a flying saucer crashed 100 kilometers from Roswell, New Mexico.
The next morning july 3, 1947, Mac Brazel, a farmer in the Corona area, discovered, along with a friend, debris spread over more than one kilometer. After picking up a few, he goes home and shares his amazing discovery with his neighbors. The metal possesses strange properties: impossible to burn or cut.
On July 6, 1947, Mac Brazel went to Roswell with samples to report to the sheriff the crash of the aircraft he witnessed. The sheriff warns the local air base. Officers arrive a few minutes later. Major Jesse A. Marcel, base security officer and a key witness in the case, is dispatched to the crash site.
On 7 July, 1947, a secret operation is organized by the army to recover the wreckage. Four apparently human beings were found dead in a state of decomposition. A team of scientists would have done the autopsy. The next day, a security perimeter is established while Brazel is under surveillance.
On the morning of July 8, 1947, the site of a second crash was discovered 4 kilometers southeast of the first by a team of archaeologists just before the arrival of the military. Archaeologists claim to have seen the debris of a "gray metal object" and four other non-human bodies of 1.15 meters.
In a first press release, the army confirms that the team of Major Jesse Marcel has recovered the wreckage of a flying saucer. That same evening, from his office in Forth Worth, Texas, General Ramey said that the specialists had made a mistake and presented the journalists with the debris of a probe balloon that had been hastily dispatched by air.
The case is subsequently suffocated. The numerous witnesses were reportedly gagged and put under surveillance. Some have even disappeared mysteriously.
In 1978, the Roswell affair resurfaced when Jesse Marcel, then retired, publicly stated the first version of the facts. In 1994, an official investigation is instituted, but it is hampered by the army that does not really cooperate.
During the night of 30 to 31 March 1990, two Belgian F-16 interceptors encountered a UFO. Their radar then captures the movement of a light triangle that goes from 300 to 1200 km / h in one second. In the second part of the report, Gilles Gougeon talks about the Belgian wave of the early 1990s. Unlike the authorities of several countries that are discrete on the issue of UFOs, the Belgian government has decided to investigate publicly and open.
