When you think of the most iconic UFO event in modern history, what comes to mind?

I bet it's the 1947 Roswell crash, isn't it?

Me too.

I mean, for those of us who think the government is hiding proof of alien life, this case is sort of like the origin story.

The catalyst moment, the thing that kicked the government into high gear after they supposedly recovered pieces of a downed UFO, maybe even alien bodies on a ranch in New Mexico.

out in Cape Girardeau, Missouri.

And one of the first people on the scene was a pastor who'd been called to give the passengers of that craft their last rights.

Not only did a person walk away with photographic evidence this had occurred.

Some claim to see remnants from this craft stored inside the Capitol building.

And yet, hardly anyone knows about the Cape Girardeau crash, even today.

Or, as I like to refer to it, the Roswell before Roswell.

And I'm talking lots of them.

And when I think about secrets, I think about our mother, right, Rosh?

Mom got diagnosed in 2016 with breast cancer, and she did not want anybody to know except for her immediate

family. Yeah. Like she wanted to hold that so close to her heart because she was just so proud
