One side claims a UFO crash with alien bodies; the other blames slag, a Man in Black, and a doomed B-25 bomber—the first Air Force casualties near Kelso, WA.
This isn’t just a debate about flying saucers. It’s about which version of 1947’s “Summer of the Saucers” deserves center stage.
Moderator: Dr. Tim Mounce, co-host of the acclaimed “All Things Unexplained” podcast.
The event will be hosted by Resident Roswell Researchers and the Washington-based United Festivals of UFOs (UFO-UFO), longtime rivals who’ve issued a rare joint statement:
“To jointly and publicly address long-standing questions and controversies (some might say, grievances) relating to the history, mythology, and legacy of the 1947 Summer of the Saucers, specifically including 1947 UFO incidents (both famous and infamous) occurring in Roswell, New Mexico, Mt. Rainier, Washington, and Maury Island, Washington.“
These important questions, and others of less importance, will be debated in the neutral territory of Truth or Consequences, NM, at the Truth or Consequences Brewery.
- On one side, UFO-UFO, representing Washington State’s role in kickstarting the modern UFO phenomenon.
- And on the other side, Roswell, the town that took that phenomenon to the bank.
- The winner will know the truth.
- The loser, consequences.
Sponsors: Truth or Consequences Brewery, Chehalis Flying Saucer Party, The Roswer UFO Tour, MIBBB Fest, UFO-UFO
The event will be live-streamed on Youtube.
