Roswell (pop: 45,300) is a city in the southeastern quarter of the state of New Mexico. Roswell is a center for irrigation farming, dairying, ranching, manufacturing, distribution, and petroleum production. It is also the home of New Mexico Military Institute (NMMI), founded in 1891. Bitter Lake National Wildlife Refuge is located a few miles northeast of the city on the Pecos River. Roswell is most popularly known for having its name attached to what is now called the 1947 Roswell UFO incident, even though the crash site of the alleged UFO was some seventy-five miles from Roswell and closer to Corona. The investigation and debris recovery was handled by the local Roswell Army Air Field.
