Today's google Doodle
Today's google Doodle celebrates the 66th anniversary of the first Roswell sighting of a UFO. This UFO was a weather balloon with really cool out of this world science, but it was only as off worldly as the ionosphere. The project that these balloons were from was Skyhook and was from the Aeronautical research division of the General Mills company. Yes, the cereal company General Mills. Eagle Speak has a great article on Skyhook, and David Darling has a nice short explanation of the UFO sightings.
Enjoy!
