In a small town in Texas, there was a peculiar incident that occurred in the late 1800s. It involved a crash landing of a UFO on the property of a local judge, causing quite a stir among the townsfolk. The being inside the ship, known to the residents as Ned, didn't survive the crash. His remains were buried in the town cemetery with Christian rites, as the town officials believed he was a native of Mars.
According to reports from The Dallas Morning News, the cigar-shaped spaceship was traveling at a slow speed of 10 miles per hour before colliding with the windmill of Judge Proctor's property. The impact caused a loud explosion, scattering debris all over the area. The newspaper also mentioned finding papers on Ned's person, but they were written in an unknown language, making it impossible to decipher.
Despite the Army official's statement that the pilot was from Mars, there were doubts among the townspeople about the truth behind the incident. However, two witnesses, who were 15 and 10 years old at the time, claimed to have seen the spaceship crash. They even shared their accounts with the Mutual UFO Network, a non-profit organization dedicated to researching and investigating UFO sightings.
Some parts of the recovered ship were thrown into a nearby well, while others were buried with Ned in the cemetery. The townsfolk believed that the ship was made of unknown metals and that its presence had poisoned the water in the well. As a precaution, the well was sealed up, and the metal ship was removed and used as a water source. However, the new owner, Brawley Oates, developed arthritis and blamed it on the ship's metal. He then had the well sealed up as well, and it remains that way to this day.
The townspeople have grown tired of the attention that the incident has brought upon their town. They have had to deal with people trying to exhume Ned's remains or dig up the supposed crash site. In 1972, the cemetery association even had to get a court injunction to prevent people from doing so without informing the next of kin.
Over the years, there have been numerous investigations into the Aurora incident, but none have been able to provide concrete evidence. Even TV shows and UFO organizations have come up short, with some unmarked graves possibly holding the remains of the supposed alien pilot. Some metal pieces recovered from the crash site and the graveyard have been examined, but experts have not found anything to suggest that they belonged to a UFO.
For the locals, the Aurora incident has become a part of their town's history, whether they believe it or not. Some have even organized alien conferences to celebrate the town's unique story, while others, like Toni Wheeler, have grown up listening to their elders' tales about Ned. Despite some skepticism, the incident has put Aurora on the map and made it known for all things UFOs, aliens, and mysterious men in black.
In the end, the truth behind the Aurora incident may never be known. Some believe it was all a hoax, while others hold onto the belief that it was a genuine encounter with extraterrestrial life. As for the town of Aurora, they have learned to embrace their unique history and continue to live their lives as usual, despite the occasional curiosity-seekers that come their way.
