Google decided to celebrate the 66th anniversary of the Roswell UFO incident in a fun way with the creation of an interactive Google Doodle. The black-and-white Google Doodle video game allows the Internet users to aid an alien search for the missing parts of his spaceship.

Once the challenge is completed, Google will provide the top search terms regarding the Roswell UFO incident. Google's feature on Roswell is the latest among a couple of famous doodles created in the past with the objective of remembering the UFO incident that happened in July 8 1947 where witnesses claimed seeing mysterious flying objects at Roswell, New Mexico.

Google already has a long list of released doodles where a dedicated team works together in developing the interactive with certain events worthy of a special celebration. The official Google Doodle page explains that the idea initially came from Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin in 1998 as the two played around with the business logo.

Preliminary theories on the 1947 Roswell UFO incident suggest that the unidentified object that crashed on a New Mexico ranch included extraterrestrial life which set off a widespread debate. Roswell Army Air Field (RAAF) public information officer Walter Haut confirmed in a press release that a mysterious flying disk was recovered on a ranch near Roswell which ignited suspicion since the official government explained the object that crashed was a military surveillance balloon.

Witnesses affirmed they saw flying disks as well as alien bodies and accused that the US government covered up the incident. In 1978, the Roswell UFO controversy resurfaced when Major Jesse Marcel was interviewed and he declared that the US government decided to hide the existence of the UFO remains.

The US Air Force released an official report in June 1997 to put a stop to the conspiracy theories that has been going on for years. In the "Case Closed: Final Report on the Roswell Crash," the authorities maintained that the alien bodies reportedly found at the crash site were actually life-sized test dummies.

However, the public's interest with the 1947 Roswell UFO incident continues up to this day and the Google Doodle interactive has definitely reminisce the strange occurrence. At social networking site Twitter, #Roswell is currently trending and Internet users described the Roswell Google Doodle as the "best Doodle ever."
