The Roswell incident is the most well-known of all the thousands of UFO cases on record. Even people with no interest or belief in UFOs know of Roswell and the story’s basic theme. Namely, that of a flying saucer crashing to earth in the late 1940s, and a hasty cover-up of the facts – suppression which persists to this day. Roswell isn’t just any mystery – it’s potentially one of the greatest mysteries and stories in human history. The persistence continues and even the city of Roswell acknowledges an event occurred that cannot be explained and as long as there are no real files left in the annals of the military, this becomes a cosmic cold case that needs to be solved. Tonight on Ground Zero (7-10pm, pacific time), Clyde Lewis talks with co-hosts of the new Discovery Channel series, Alien Encounters: Fact or Fiction, Chrissy Newton and Mitch Horowitz about ROSWELL – THE GATHERING.
