July 23, 1997: The Day After Roswell - Colonel Philip J. Corso & Dr. John Alexander
Published 2 years, 4 months ago
Description
Art Bell hosts retired Colonel Philip J. Corso and Dr. John Alexander for an extraordinary discussion about recovered extraterrestrial technology and its integration into American industry. Dr. Alexander, who personally verified Corso's military credentials through Pentagon records and the National Archives, provides independent confirmation of the Colonel's distinguished career spanning World War II, Korea, and the Eisenhower White House.
Corso describes seeing an extraterrestrial body at Fort Riley, Kansas in July 1947, floating in liquid inside one of five crates being transported to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. He details how General Arthur Trudeau later assigned him a file cabinet containing artifacts from the crash, which he systematically distributed to military laboratories and defense contractors. Among the technologies Corso claims originated from this material are fiber optics, night vision devices, integrated circuits, and irradiated food preservation.
The conversation also covers a secret war involving U.S. reconnaissance aircraft probing Soviet borders, abandoned American POWs, and Project Horizon, the Army's classified plan to establish a military base on the moon. Dr. Alexander notes that Corso's methods created an untraceable path, making the alien origin of these technologies virtually impossible to confirm or deny.
