Curiosa
Most of us have nowadays heard
of the "Roswell Incident" in the U.S.A. in 1947. In those less paranoiacal
times, despite the world having recently emerged from a catastrophic war,
a sanguine view was still being taken about the possible presence of entities
from other worlds, at least by the administrations of the United States
of America and certain other countries including the United Kingdom. This
seems to have hardened somewhat over the succeeding half century, although
our kind are by and large no fools and are most fortunately still allowed
to form our own judgments. Here follows a small, growing collection of
public domain material for those interested, without any intended criticism
or endorsement.
