===The Roswell crash of 1947 near the Trinity Test Site of the first explosion of an [[atomic bomb]] in July 1945.  At the time of the early tests and usage in combat of atomic weapons, atmospheric contamination from an atomic explosion was on only theorized and speculated.  The balloon that crashed in Roswell two years after the first atomic test contained a Geiger counter to detect lingering atmospheric contamination. The development of nuclear weapons in the late 1940s and throughout the 1950s was viewed in a positive light by government, media, and the public. Scares related to atmospheric contamination, and radioactive particles falling back to earth in rainstorms to contaminate soil and enter the food chain were played down, so the myth of extraterrestrial life was encouraged by the U.S. government to divert public attention and concern away from the danger of above ground nuclear testing.

It wasn't until 1962 that the above ground Nuclear Test Ban treaty was signed by the [[United States]] and [[Soviet Union]] to terminate the dangers that above ground nuclear explosions presented to humanity, and that scientists on both sides agreed existed.
