Alex from WTF is back with a new episode dropping Tuesday, March 10th at 3:00 PM EST

Alex from WTF is back with a new episode dropping Tuesday, March 10th at 3:00 PM EST, and this time he’s asking a question most UFO stories never start with.

Everyone knows the name Roswell, 1947. It’s usually described as the moment the government first started lying about a crashed flying saucer.

But what if that story is already fifty years too late?

In this episode, Alex goes back to Aurora, Texas, 1897, where a mysterious airship reportedly crashed into a windmill, debris was scattered across a farm, and townspeople claimed the pilot was “not of this world.” According to the original newspaper report, the body was even buried in the local cemetery.

From Aurora to Roswell to the controversial Majestic-12 documents, Alex traces a pattern that some believe has repeated for more than a century. Strange craft crash. Early reports surface. Then the story changes, the evidence disappears, and the official explanation becomes something ordinary.

Were these events nothing more than folklore and hoaxes that grew over time, or do they hint at a long history of secrecy about recovered craft and unknown technology?

That’s the question Alex is digging into when the next WTF episode premieres Tuesday, March 10th at 3:00 PM EST.
