60 Sec Rec: Roswell New Mexico

"After a decade away from home, Liz Ortecho returns to her native Roswell to care for her ailing father. When she arrives, she reconnects with her high school crush Max Evans, who is now a police officer. Their chemistry is electric, but Liz soon learns something shocking: Max and his siblings are aliens who have kept their abilities secret their entire lives." [Rotten Tomatoes]

This is a show where too many things happen all the time and everyone is always in peril or trying to save someone else, very scifi soap-opera. It also starts with the love story between Max and Liz, but it's much more than that.

The strength of this show is in its cast/characters. It's an ensemble, they all have chemistry together and different types of relationships. There's couples, there's exes, there's unrequited loves, there's best friends, new friends, siblings... yes, some characters have more weight and screentime than others, and not everything is very well though out but ultimately, it works more often than not and the relationships develop instead of stagnate.

You see them together and you see why they're friends, or why they like each other, or why they have problems.

This is a show where a gay character says 'I'm gay', and shockingly, the bisexual character also says the word bisexual. More than once, even! There's also another not-straight character who, if I remember correctly, remains unlabeled but it makes sense for them (and they discover it in their late twenties too).

It's entertaining; it's dramatic but not unkind. It's not without issues, but it's fun. And it has a pretty good ending, with decent to good farewells for every character, even though it got cancelled. Also recommended here by @bugboybuck if you want a second opinion.

Developed by Carina Adly Mackenzie. Written by CAD (The Originals, The Flash), Eva McKenna (The Originals), Steve Stringer (Tell Me a Story), Leah Longoria (Jane The Virgin)... Directed by Lance Anderson (The Vampire Diaries), Jeffrey G. Hunt (Gotham Knights), Tim Andrew (Teen Wolf, NCIS)... Starring Jeanine Mason, Nathan Dean, Michael Vlamis, Lily Cowles, Tyler Blackburn, Heather Hemmens, Michael Trevino, Trevor St. John, Karan Oberoi, Amber Midthunder,...

Coming of the Saucers, Mount Rainier

In late November 1869, a couple named Mr. and Mrs. St. John told the Tacoma Daily Ledger about a strange nighttime sighting. They said they were lying in bed around midnight, looking out the window. Mrs. St. John saw a strange light in the sky east of Mount Rainier. She woke her husband up, and he saw it too. They said it was as bright as the lighthouse beacon. It flashed several times, and each time it flashed, various colored lights shot out from the center of the object like spokes of a wheel.

Did this strange object reappear over fifty years later? Certainly something like it was seen again in 1947, and this sighting led to the popular use of the term "flying saucer." The phrase owes its existence to a newspaperman's misquote of a pilot named Kenneth Arnold regarding a strange experience he had on June 24, 1947, one similar to the St. John's experience in 1896.

Kenneth Arnold lived in Boise, Idaho, where he owned a business that made and installed fire control systems. Business must have been slow in the summer of 1947, because Arnold spent June 24, in his airplane, flying over the Washington Cascades. He was looking for a missing marine airplane, hoping for a $10,000 reward. At two fifty p.m. he was traveling east over the mountains toward Mount Adams, when he saw nine large metallic flying objects.

These craft were about twenty-five miles away, at an elevation of ten thousand feet, traveling very, very fast. He noticed that they did not fly in straight lines like ordinary airplanes or make wide turns. Instead, they dipped and swerved, seemingly to follow the mountain peaks from Mount Rainier to Mount Adams. Arnold started the stopwatch on his airplane control panel. Based on the distance between the two mountains (forty-five miles) and the time it took the objects to travel it, he estimated they were flying at twelve hundred miles an hour. At first, Arnold thought they were jet aircraft, even though their speed was far faster than that of the jets of that era.

Once the strange craft vanished in the distance, Arnold continued his search, until he landed in Yakima. He reported the incident to the Civil Aeronautics Administration and the next day flew to Pendleton, Oregon, where the press mobbed him. Before Arnold's sighting, there had been earlier reports of similar objects, and the press and U.S. government always referred to these as flying disks, as did Arnold.

He told the reporters that nine craft were about a hundred feet across, thin, and disk-or crescent shaped. Although the front was round, the rear looked chopped off and came to a point. He said that he was amazed that there was no tail, as on a normal aircraft, and that the craft did not make any noise. When one of the reporters asked him how the objects maneuvered, Arnold replied that they moved kind of like a saucer would move if someone skipped it across a lake. The reporter wrote down that Arnold said the aircraft looked like flying saucers, and the misquote stuck.

Although this was not the first unidentified flying object ever reported, the publicity set off a rash of new sightings. After a radio interview, a number of people from the Seattle area and the MIdwest contacted the media and reported seeing multiple flying objects on the same day. On July 4, a United Airlines flight crew reported seeing flying objects in Idaho. A few days after that, on July 8, another flying saucer was reported to have crashed in Roswell, New Mexico, and the alien aircraft craze really took off. Newspapers contacted military officials, who denied that they were testing experimental jet aircraft in the Washington Cascades.

Skeptics believed that Arnold could have been fooled by mirages created by air inversions or even by reflections of his own airplane off the atmosphere. Later, someone suggested that he'd seen a swarm of meteors that flashed and burned out quickly. Despite these suggestions, no one could prove that Arnold was mistaken, including the air force, which had launched its own investigation. Their findings led them to form a team that eventually turned into Project Blue Book, a formalized government investigation of UFOs undertaken from 1952 to 1970.

The issue of whether UFOs are really flying craft from outer space is full of controversy, and much of this, including its central term, had its beginnings in our home state. It is interesting to note that although skeptics do not believe that Kenneth Arnold saw flying machines from other worlds, none of them accuse him of deliberate fraud. Arnold's clear honesty and candor led the way to open discussion of the phenomena.

Alright , I'll bite. July 8th.

"In 1099, it was the beginning of the Siege of Jerusalem. In 1892, three people died in the Great Fire of 1892 in St. John's, Newfoundland. It's not bad, but it's also the anniversary of the Roswell UFO incident. In 1988 on that day, the Island Express train from Bangalore to Kanyakumari derailed on the Peruman bridge and killed 105 passengers."
