國家地理:The Real Roswell 羅斯維爾飛碟

Jesse Marcel remains convinced that there was one thing in the debris that could only be extraterrestrial. He described small metal-like I-beams with hieroglyphic symbols.
The metal beam like our small miniaturized I-beam, and had these perplexed violet symbols on the inside edge of that. You know, that's something like, this is alien writing.
While Marcel Junior described as metal I-beams, his father remembered them as not being like metal: it looked more like wood. Such contradictions among eyewitnesses are widespread among the Roswell faithful. Other key witnesses also described very earthly debris of wooden sticks, tinfoil, a tough paper and rubber strips. Scientists and skeptics alike find it hard to believe an alien spaceship would be constructed from such simple materials.
If you're gonna go from one star system to another, you need a craft that can go a fair fraction of the speed of light. It has to go ten, maybe 100,000 miles a second. Well, a craft like that is going to have to have enormous engines. It's just gonna be something that's gonna, you know, probably be the size of an ocean liner. This is not gonna be a little, you know, souped-up motorbike.
While the physical abilities of this material remain(s) in question, almost all the key witnesses made reference to seeing unusual markings. Jesse Marcel described seeing alien hieroglyphics on small metal I-beams.
I have to believe this was something from another civilization. I'm actually convinced of that.
The Marcels both think they saw alien hieroglyphics. But other witnesses testify to seeing nothing more than flower patterns. If the origin of these markings can be identified, it might solve the Roswell mystery once and for all.
