New Delhi: An interactive doodle involving a flying saucer and an alien commemorates the 66th anniversary of the Roswell UFO incident's reporting on the Google home page on July 8, 2013.
The incident referred to as the Roswell UFO incident, occurred on July 7, 1947 near Roswell in New Mexico, USA, and reports about the incident appeared the following day.
An airborne object crashed on a ranch and there have been many theories revolving around it, the most popular being that the flying object was a spacecraft with aliens aboard, though the United States Armed Forces maintain that it was an experimental high-altitude surveillance balloon.
The object of the Google Roswell UFO incident doodle is to get the alien back to his flying saucer/spacecraft and involves clicking on objects that in typical video game fashion turn into tools to help reach the goal.
The doodle ends with a newspaper front page similar to what appeared 66 years ago. The lead headline of the Google Daily Record (a takeoff of the Roswell Daily Record) announces 'Flying saucer spotted in Roswell region', while the actual headline in the Roswell Daily Record dated July 8, 1947 was more specific. 'RAAF captures flying saucer on ranch in Roswell region,' it read. RAAF stands for Roswell Army Air Field.
The Roswell UFO incident Google doodle is on Google's home pages for many countries, but not on Google's India home page.
