1. 1947 Roswell UFO incident

This incident remains to be the most famous UFO sighting. Some people, on their patrol to check their sheep after a heavy storm, saw debris scattered all over the place. They were unable to identify them but sure that the debris came from some metalwork. Soon the US government found out about this incident as they were already trying to follow up this unidentified craft on their radars. The US government covered it up by claiming that the metal debris was of a surveillance device from a classified operation.
