Acting for ArtistsUFO Case 0259 – Operation Mogul
Operation Mogul is the air force’s “official” excuse for the Roswell cover up. To my casual observation, it seems pretty reasonable. I find it hard to believe that if there was a real cover up that the people doing the cover up would allow an annual event to celebrate it.
It’s a little known fact – relatively speaking! – that the supposed sighting wasn’t even of a saucer. >,> It was shaped like a cigar case that skipped through the air *like a saucer*. So. Much. Misinformation born from that…
The “skipped like a saucer” line was actually from the Kenneth Arnold sighting just a few years before Roswell. That’s considered the first “official” UFO report of modern times and it is where the term “Flying Saucer” is correct.
