| Roswell has become the Mardi Gras capital of the UFO culture |
This week marks the 50th anniversary of the UFO claim of the century --the contention that an alien saucer and its ET occupants crashed in a farmer's field near the New Mexican town of Roswell. Perspective on the events that came down in 1947 vary widely. But to experience the celebration , the sheer, heady euphoria of the cultural phenom that is Roswell, you've come home.

| Exhibit of alien corpse on display at the UFO Museum |
Here, along with OMNI contributing editor Dennis Stacy, you will tour the millennium's Americana -- the transcendental incarnation of our society's kitsch -- in the shops, museums, and streets of Roswell. Celebrate with Stacy, who, digital camera in hand, is capturing the other side of American spirituality at the mother of all UFO parties. You may have missed Woodstock, but you don't need to miss this.
