Alien Fest and UFOlogist Invasion In Roswell

Looking for someplace to go to and see this summer?

Here's an idea:

I hadn't realized that this year marks 75 years since the crash of the flying saucer (UFO) in the Roswell, New Mexico area until I saw the above graphic from the International UFO Museum and Research Center.

Whether or not the craft recovered was a flying saucer or some balloon is still being debated today. But it is good that the city of Roswell, New Mexico is celebrating the event each year with a UFO Festival (now called Alien Fest) and the above even coincides with this year's festival which also takes place July 1-3. I attended the 2018 festival and had a good time (a lot of walking is required).

The International UFO Museum and Research Center is worth a trip to Roswell alone. 

Above, where else can you meet and party with aliens?

Roswell, New Mexico is 201 miles south of Albuquerque. 

Since this year is the 75th anniversary, this year's Alien Fest should be a special one!
