While there is, of course, a great deal of debate about what did or did not crash at Roswell, New Mexico on that long-gone day in the Summer of 1947 (aliens, crash-test dummies, Japanese POWs, cryptoterrestrials or something else), the theory that all of the fuss was caused by nothing stranger than a Mogul Balloon (as the US Air Force confidently asserts was the case), is looking less and less likely as time passes, and as Kevin Randle reveals here.

   Its an interesting read, but I think some of the criticisms in the comments
   are valid. Given the times, I would have
   been surprised if MOGUL had been the
   only means of tracking possible Russian
   bomb tests.

   I agree that one method of spying those not exclude another (i.e. having the Mogul balloons in parallel with manned reconnaissance flights).

   Now, about Kevin’s assertion that Mogul was mentioned on the papers back in those days, is there a way to corroborate this? Can someone point me out to a web page where they keep a jpeg file of a newspaper or something?
