There were a number of reports of a mysterious flying disc ( Spaceship ) landing in Roswell, New Mexico. At first reports were denied by the U.S. military, then a report appeared which stated they had been lucky enough to obtain one of the DISCS which was later denied. The debate whether an alien spacecraft actually landed in Roswell, New Mexico, still continues today with many believing it was a government cover up.

Government websites in both the United States and South Korea faced cyber attack attempts on this day. The United States was able to ward off most attacks, while South Korea was unable to. The attacks were believed to be carried out by North Korea, or North Korean sympathizers. These attacks highlighted the growing importance web security played in protecting government agencies and national intelligence.
