IT’S been 63 years since an alien spacecraft crashed near the town of Roswell, New Mexico, and even today UFO’s still roam our skies.
In the late 1970s, a local couple had a close encounter of the third kind with a UFO on Urmston meadows.
The police who attended the scene were also witnesses to this alien phenomenon.
Later, a television documentary was made regarding the actual events that happened that day.
In February 2013, a UFO had been spotted on several occasions over the skies of Trafford, when, out of the blue, a young woman noticed a cylinder-shaped object hovering over the Kingsway Park Primary School, Davyhulme; eventually zooming off in the direction of Irlam.
Only recently, ‘a meteorite with headlights’ is how a woman driving along Broadway, Davyhulme described a blazing UFO streaking across the Trafford skies.
Wherever do these mysterious flying machines come from? What are they here for?
It’s a search for the answer of one of the most fundamental questions we can ask – are we alone?
