The Day After Roswell

De: William J. Birnes, Philip Corso

Narrado por: William J. Birnes

A breathtaking exposé that reads like a thriller, The Day After Roswell is a stunning depiction of just what happened in Roswell, New Mexico all those years ago and how the effects of this mysterious unidentified aircraft crash are still relevant today.

Former member of President Eisenhower’s National Security Council and the Foreign Technology Desk in the United States Army, Colonel Philip J. Corso was assigned to work at a strange crash site in Roswell in 1947. He had no idea that his work there would change his life and the course of history forever. Only in his fascinating memoir can you discover how he helped removed alien artifacts from the site and used them to help improve much of the technology the Army uses today, such as circuit chips, fiber optics, and more.

Laying bare the United States government’s shocking role in the Roswell incident—what was found, the cover-up, and more—The Day After Roswell is an extraordinary memoir that not only forces us to reconsider the past, but also our role in the universe.

If anything it's interesting

The first thing is, It kept me interested. There were a few repetitive areas where previous information was repeated to explain something.

The second thing is, our guy isn't a scientist let alone an extraterrestrial engineer. Just a couple of the explanations presented won't go over well with physicists, but you have to remember that the explanations aren't from a scientist. The majority is plausible.

The book doesn't read like a fiction novel. The narrator is not great, but okay considering the material.

cool story but it is science fiction

This is a very cool story by Philip Corso but until there is any evidence supporting his claims this book should be filed as science fiction. I believe there may be some truths to his claims but it is sensationalized in the book. If this was written more like an autobiography rather a sensational science fiction novel it would be more believable. Obviously all of the dialog between Corso and others is made up to carry the story but it would have been better to just stick to the facts and provide hard evidence to support the claims.

Amazing but narration could be better.

Book was enlightening but narration could have been better. Story is amazing but needs a different voice to tell it.

Straight from the horse's mouth

Straight from the horses mouth — a man who had nine levels above top secret. The narration sounded like Tony Saprano, this was less surprising hearing at the end that the audiobook was produced in New Jersey. After hearing Col. Corso interviews, this was actually a good selection as he seems to be a no-nonsense and a military wise-ass at the same time.

Because this is a first hand account of what 'really' happened in the 1947 Roswell crash from someone at such high level / rank, it's likely the definitive guide on the subject. The talk of the bureaucratic layers and politics within the government were all too real to make this phony nonsense, and many of the new technological discoveries / arms race in the time period of the USA/USSR Cold War line up directly with what Ben Rich purported in his book Skunk Works. Corso also outlines many technologies which he claims have 'off-world / alien' origin that were reverse-engineered from the craft: such as integrated circuits, night vision, lasers, aramid bulletproof fibers (Kevlar), smart/memory fabrics & metals, and one of the biggest discoveries — fiber optics (which allow for the high-speed data transfers that make the internet possible via undersea cable networks). He even goes into detail about how the famous American physicist Richard Feynman's groundbreaking work may have been influenced by some of the top secret discoveries gathered from the crash site, which he was granted access to in a 'Manhattan Project' style operation (commonly dubbed the SDI or 'Star Wars').

You be the judge for yourself whether this is all fact or fiction — but this book remains a captivating, compelling, wild ride nonetheless.

Jerry

This book was entertaining and interesting, however it goes off course at times to let you know how Col Corso single handed came up with the space camp, defeated the Cuban Missile crisis and was able to stop congress from prosecuting the general over the use of agent orange.

I found this book very interesting. It gives me a lot to think about. I would reccomend it to everyone.

The narration performance was fantastic! Lively and entertaining. The story is, well, mind-bending. Challenges one’s thinking.
