Roswell (also known as Roswell: The U.F.O. Cover-Up) is a 1994 television film produced by Paul Davids based on what was said to be a true story about the Roswell UFO incident, the supposed U.S. military capture of a flying saucer and its alien crew following a crash near the town of Roswell, New Mexico, in July 1947.
World UFO Day is an awareness day for people to gather together and watch the skies for unidentified flying objects.
 The day is celebrated by some on June 24, and others on July 2.
 June 24 is the date that aviator Kenneth Arnold reported what is generally considered to be the first widely reported unidentified flying object sighting in the United States, while July 2 commemorates the supposed UFO crash in the 1947 Roswell UFO Incident.
Wheels For Wishes is a non-profit national car donation organization based in Minnetonka, Minnesota which donates its net proceeds to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
 Wheels For Wishes is a United States-based 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
 In 2015, a widely publicized report alleged that only 20% of proceeds were used to support charitable goals.
 News reports highlighted the fact that key staffers of Wheels for Wishes (formally, the "Car Donation Foundation") were also owners of two related businesses that were paid a total of $36 million by the charity from 2011 to 2014.
 At least one report went so far as to call its program "a misleading scam."
The UFO Incident (Interrupted Journey) is a 1975 television film starring James Earl Jones and Estelle Parsons based on the alleged 1961 alien abduction of Barney and Betty Hill.
The Day After Roswell is an American book about extraterrestrial spacecraft and the Roswell UFO incident.
 It was written by United States Army Colonel Philip J. Corso, with help from William J. Birnes, and was published as a tell-all memoir by Pocket Books in 1997, a year before Corso's death.
 The book claims that an extraterrestrial spacecraft crashed near Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947 and was recovered by the United States government who then sought to cover up all evidence of extraterrestrials.
1st Lt. Walter Haut (June 2, 1922 – December 15, 2005) was the public information officer (PIO) at the 509th Bomb Group based in Roswell, New Mexico during 1947.
 Early on July 8, 1947 he was ordered by the base commander, Colonel William Blanchard, to draft a press release to the public, announcing that the United States Army Air Forces had recovered a crashed "flying disc" from a nearby ranch.
 The press release garnered widespread national and even international media attention.
 The U.S. Army Air Force retracted the claim later the same day, saying instead that a weather balloon had been recovered.
 Haut also received some criticism and ridicule in the nation's press for putting out the original press release.
 The series of events eventually became known as the Roswell UFO Incident.
The Kecksburg UFO incident occurred on December 9, 1965, at Kecksburg, Pennsylvania, United States.
 A large, brilliant fireball was seen by thousands in at least six U.S. states and Ontario, Canada.
 It streaked over the Detroit, Michigan – Windsor, Canada area, reportedly dropped hot metal debris over Michigan and northern Ohio, starting some grass fires, and caused sonic booms in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area.
 It was generally assumed and reported by the press to be a meteor after authorities discounted other proposed explanations such as a plane crash, errant missile test, or reentering satellite debris.
 However, eyewitnesses in the small village of Kecksburg, about 30 miles southeast of Pittsburgh, claimed something crashed in the woods.
 A boy said he saw the object land; his mother saw a wisp of blue smoke arising from the woods and alerted authorities.
 Another reported feeling a vibration and "a thump" about the time the object reportedly landed.
 Others from Kecksburg, including local volunteer fire department members, reported finding an object in the shape of an acorn and about as large as a Volkswagen Beetle.
 Writing resembling Egyptian hieroglyphs was also said to be in a band around the base of the object.
 Witnesses further reported that intense military presence, most notably the United States Army, secured the area, ordered civilians out, and then removed an object on a flatbed truck.
 The military claimed they searched the woods and found "absolutely nothing."
The North American variant of the Ford Escort is a small family/compact car introduced by Ford in 1980 for the 1981 model year.
 Adopting the "Escort" name used by Ford of Europe since 1968 along with the general design and layout of the third-generation European Escort, it was the successor of the Ford Pinto, which had a tarnished reputation for quality and safety after a widely publicized fuel tank defect.
 The Escort was one of Ford's most successful models in the 1980s, earning a much better reputation than the Pinto, which faced widely publicized safety issues.
 In fact, the Escort was the single best-selling car in its second year in the United States and during most of that decade.
The Gorman UFO dogfight was a widely publicized UFO incident.
 It occurred on October 1, 1948, in the skies over Fargo, North Dakota, and involved George F. Gorman, a pilot with the North Dakota Air National Guard.
 USAF Captain Edward J. Ruppelt wrote in his bestselling and influential "The Report on Unidentified Flying Objects" that the Gorman Dogfight was one of three "classic" UFO incidents in 1948 that "proved to [Air Force] intelligence specialists that UFOs were real."
 However, in 1949 the US Air Force labeled the Gorman Dogfight as being caused by a lighted weather balloon.
Barney and Betty Hill were an American couple who claimed they were abducted by extraterrestrials in a rural portion of New Hampshire from September 19 to September 20, 1961.
 It was the first widely publicized report of an alien abduction in the United States.
