Synopsis
On July 4, 1947, a flying saucer was reported to have crashed near Roswell, New Mexico. This newsflash, and the immediate cover-up by the Air Force caused the perfect atmosphere of government distrust and conspiracy theories for the Alliance to hide behind.
But, when the space shuttle is fired on by a cloaked Tribune satellite that has been monitoring North America for the past fifty years, Rinaker fears that the truth will be discovered about the Alliance's staged UFO crash. With both NASA and Intracom racing for the satellite and the secrets it's held for the past fifty years, the Alliance will have to capture an alien craft and prep it to destroy the satellite – all for the good of the people.
