Metallic meteorites are made primarily of Iron and Nickel. I have never seen any evidence for a meteorite made of metallic Aluminum. This is not surprising, as it does not occur in nature, but must be manufactured from chemical compounds. The Roswell metal is clearly manufactured. The question remains-- who manufactured it? The ratio of the abundance of one isotope of Magnesium to another appears to be unusual, about twice as odd as that from a known meteorite, which itself is markedly different in this respect from Earthly Magnesium. An extraterrestrial origin, even an extra-solar one is suggested. Ross

1. Alien Craft do not fragment in any way similar to Human craft upon crashing.
Can you describe how they fragment differently, and explain the specific aspects of alien metallurgy that leads to the metal fragmenting differently?
It just seems to me if you have detailed insights as to the way alien ships fragment, then you must have detailed knowledge as to how alien ships are constructed.
The link in the original post quit working. It seems to have had the term 'no link' inserted into it. When I tried to repost the link, a few posts back, on Sept. 23rd, it automatically included the 'no link' term, so couldn't be made to work. I posted a link to another site instead, which has the article. The Openminds site can be accessed through the article, and the recorded interview of Frank Kimbler listened to, through that site.

I'd really like to see this article, as I remember when they first started collecting samples from the Roswell site. I was really looking forward to their findings. Roswell still holds my interest years on.
I, too, liked Frank Kimbler's calm, reasonable approach to the Roswell incident. It appeared to me that if anyone could find the evidence and get it a serious hearing, he could. He's said that he intends to see the metal fragments tested repeatedly, so as to make a good, sound scientific case, if there is one that can be made, for the extraterrestrial, manufactured nature of the fragments he found. Its been about a month since the proposed testing at Arizona State University fell through, when the sample went missing. At that time, other tests were proposed, under conditions that would prevent a repetition of such a mishap. Nothing heard since; Perhaps such tests are being done as this is being written. Ross

Thank you.
That is a pretty interesting read. I like that he is cautious, but optimistic, about the findings. Maybe he will get a few more tests done, and the results might spark more interest in re-examinaing and investigating the Roswell site.
That's a remarkably confident and specific prediction. We shall have to wait a bit and see if it comes to pass. I would rather not believe that knowledge about such an important matter can be obscured forever by subterfuge, as it may well have been in the past. Perhaps in this case, 64 years is as long as the truth can be delayed. Ross

Ross...even if this fragment was proof positive....and was declared so in the mass media...this is what would happen.
First...a person who is somehow associated to the discoverer or people doing the tests....would suddenly and inexplicably...be on camera...doing an interview that subject would be how the tests were faked or how the material supplied was a hoax perpetrated on the populous...because prior to the release of proof positive...his friend was in a bar the night before bragging...and drunk....about how he was going to make millions on guest appearences and book deals.
Then the real proof would be taken...and then the public would laugh and quickly forget about it. Split Infinity

It may be that the diversity of life in the universe allows each intelligent species, regardless of its level of technical development to have unique abilities. These could interest other intelligent species, and allow any species to contribute meaningfully to galactic civilization. In our own case, the inability to travel the stars may be balanced by, for instance, our invention of music. A symphony may count for as much as a star drive in the greater scheme of things. Ross
