The Air Force’s Delayed Explanation: The 1990s Reports
The Air Force released new Roswell reports in 1994 and 1997, decades after the incident. They linked the crash to Project Mogul, a secret program using balloon arrays to detect Soviet nuclear tests. Critics immediately found problems with this timeline. The reports also suggested witnesses had confused 1950s crash test dummies with alien bodies from 1947. The significant time gap and inconsistencies left many unconvinced. Some saw these belated explanations as a flimsy attempt to close the case.
