Spotted on the BBC website, under the headline "The truth about Roswell?"
There is a lunar quality to the landscape of New Mexico which seems somehow appropriate for a state which is our portal to the heavens.It is here on a dried-up lake bed high above sea level that the radio telescopes of the US government's Very Large Array (VLA) send signals to the outer edges of our expanding universe, chasing the very moment of the Big Bang through the trackless void of time and space.
Yes, there was a lake, now known as Lake San Agustin, covering that region in the Pleistocene. For the rest. . . well, I'm glad that proposal to drastically increase the speed of light to ease intergalactic travel was implemented successfully!
