Roswell
Well ..Roswell that is!
As we 'emigrated' here, we drove thru Roswell, and well ..there isn't a lot there. It's flat ..and McDonalds. It's not that it's a small town. It's not. There are lots of inhabitants ...BUT..I dunno..they're sort of ALIEN to me!! :)~
Roswell's claim to fame is the 'incident'!
And..year after year..tens of thousands of people every year 'pilgrim' to Roswell to take it ('the incident') all in!
The Roswell UFO Incident was the alleged recovery of extra-terrestrial debris, including alien corpses, from an object which crashed near Roswell, New Mexico, USA, on the night of July 2, 1947. Since the late 1970s the incident has been the subject of intense controversy and the subject of 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 "Mogul" however, many UFO proponents maintain that in fact a crashed alien craft and bodies were recovered, and that 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. It ranks as one of the most publicized and controversial alleged UFO incidents. --Wikipedia
