Watch an exclusive clip from new Tubi special, 'Aliens, Abductions, and UFOs: Roswell at 75'
Celebrate the 75th anniversary of the 'Roswell Incident' with this eerie new documentary.
Despite the evidence that the wreckage was part of an operation known as Mogul(opens in new tab) designed to detect Soviet nuclear weapons tests, Ufologists and conspiracy theorists have maintained over the decades that this explanation was a cover-up, and the material was actually a real spaceship (albeit a very tiny one!) from another world.
Was it really an alien craft? A secret U.S. military plane? Or just an experimental spy balloon for detecting Soviet nuclear tests? Though the Project Mogul explanation is almost certainly the correct one, a wide range of theories ranging from the prosaic to the fantastical persist to this day.
