Roswell, l'invention des soucoupes volantes/Der UFO-Mythos von Roswell

26 mins

On 8 July 1947, the US Air Force announced the discovery of a "flying disc" which had crashed in the Roswell area of New Mexico. This was the birth of the flying saucer phenomenon. Against the backdrop of the Cold War, when conspiracy theories abounded, the myth of the UFO gradually took shape to become a recurrent theme in science-fiction movies and popular culture.
