Did the modern UFO story really begin at Roswell?
Stu and Neil start their journey through the early history of the modern UFO phenomenon with the strange “Foo Fighter” reports of the Second World War, before moving into Kenneth Arnold’s famous 1947 sighting, the arrival of the term “flying saucer”, Roswell and the US Air Force investigations that became Project Sign, Project Grudge and Project Blue Book.
Along the way, they discuss how language and popular culture may have affected the way UFOs were reported, why the Roswell story changed dramatically over time, the recurring role of balloon explanations, and what we should — and shouldn’t — infer from Project Blue Book’s thousands of investigated cases.
The timeline continues next time with the remarkable events over Washington DC in 1952.
