Netflix just released the fifth volume of Unsolved Mysteries, and episode 4 tells the true story of the Roswell UFO incident. In July 1947, there were multiple reports of a potential UFO sighting, but it did not become a worldwide phenomenon until the 1980s when Major Jesse Marcel, the man who took responsibility for the recovered debris, decided to reveal the truth about the incident. The show initially covered the Roswell incident in the original Unsolved Mysteries, but there have been significant updates in the last 35 years, prompting additional coverage of the sensational case.
