The Roswell incident occurred 75 years ago this week, launching alien-related conspiracies into the stratosphere. The incident has long been described by theorists as a government cover-up in which members of the armed forces whisked away the bodies of aliens. UFO enthusiasts have since dubbed July 2nd World UFO Day, all in celebration of the most popular incident that may or may not have involved extraterrestrial life.

We have the tools and team who can help us improve our understanding of the unknown. That’s the very definition of what science is. That’s what we do.”
