Just because it's an interesting and important case to the entire phenomena..it might be useful to point out that there was a hell of alot there @ roswell..just not aliens. Roswell can be pointed to as the moment that the US government realized that the flying saucer fetish could be used to our benefit. In a way, they turned it from the geek fanboyism of it's time to a global craze on purpose. They didn't need to do any covering up, if the imaginations of yokels would do the work for them. They even nudged it along, going forward. Their "weather balloon" story was brilliant for it;s mundanity, and the fact that it so closely mirrored the truth that in searching for what the US gov was lying about people invariably drifted away from what it actually was. It was a balloon...but it wasn't sent up to figure out the chances for rain in new mexico that day.
Cut to a few decades later and you have an entire wing of the russian intelligence apparatus believing that flying saucers were either highly advanced us aircraft..or the alien allies of the united states hell bent on their destruction. The soviets pissed money away due to this paranoia. This isn't to say that everyone over there was a blithering idiot. Cooler heads realized that by the pattern of distribution and occurence of credible ufo sightings in their own country..they were dealing with surveillance apparatus. AKA..."weather balloons".
Or, obviously..you know...that;s all a part of the cover-up.
