Known as Britain’s “answer to America’s Roswell incident,” the Silpho Saucer story broke on December 9, 1957… when ‘a mystery’ disc was found on Yorkshire moor…When the artifact was cut open a tiny book was found made of “17 thin copper sheets” covered in 2000 hieroglyphs.” Scarborough café owner, Philip Longbottom studied the disc and claimed it been sent to Earth by an alien called “Ullo” and the message warned: ‘You will improve or disappear’. Hieroglyphics were also found on the wreckage of the UFO that allegedly crashed at Roswell, New Mexico, in June 1947. Although the scientific community was skeptical, Air Chief Marshall Lord Dowding, who led the RAF during the Battle of Britain during WW2, examined the Silpho Saucer in 1958 and believed it was “genuine.” Describing it as a ‘a miniature pilot flying saucer’ – Lord Dowding was openly convinced it was “a genuine artefact from space,” according to the report in the Yorkshire Post.
