==Story== {{Wikisource|Scully's Scrapbook of October 8, 1949}} According to Scully, in March 1948, an unidentified aerial craft containing sixteen humanoid bodies was recovered by the military in New Mexico after making a controlled landing in Hart Canyon 12 miles northeast of the city of Aztec. The craft was said to be {{convert|99|ft|m|0}} in diameter, the largest UFO to date. Scully named as his sources two men identified as Newton and Gebauer, who reportedly told him the incident had been covered up and "the military had taken the craft for secret research".<ref name="Radford2014" /><ref name="Farmington1">{{cite news |last=Irvin |first=Leigh |title=Aztec UFO landing subject of new book |url=http://www.daily-times.com/ci_20271257/azrec-ufo-landing-subject-new-book |newspaper=[[Farmington Daily Times]] |location=New Mexico |date=March 28, 2012 |access-date=April 1, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150923212404/http://www.daily-times.com/ci_20271257/azrec-ufo-landing-subject-new-book |archive-date=September 23, 2015 |url-status=dead |df=mdy-all }}</ref><ref name="Largest">{{cite news |last=Saunders |first=Rhys |url=http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=FDTB&p_theme=fdtb&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&s_dispstring=headline%28phenomena%29%20AND%20date%283/26/2006%20to%203/26/2006%29&p_field_date-0=YMD_date&p_params_date-0=date:B,E&p_text_date-0=3/26/2006%20to%203/26/2006%29&p_field_advanced-0=title&p_text_advanced-0=%28%22phenomena%22%29&xcal_numdocs=20&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D&xcal_useweights=no |title=Sharing stories of unexplained phenomena |newspaper=Farmington Daily Times |location=New Mexico |id=Article ID: fdn29283847 |date=March 26, 2006 |page=1A }} Article available via [http://www.daily-times.com/archivesearch Farmington Daily Times Online Archive] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150923212330/http://www.daily-times.com/archivesearch |date=September 23, 2015 }}, (fee based).</ref> Scully wrote that the crashed UFO along with other flying saucers captured by the government came from [[Venus (planet)|Venus]] and worked on "magnetic principles". According to Scully, the inhabitants stocked concentrated food wafers and "heavy water" for drinking purposes, and every dimension of the craft was "divisible by nine". Science writer [[Martin Gardner]] criticized Scully's story as full of "wild imaginings" and "scientific howlers".<ref name="Gardner2012">{{cite book|author=Martin Gardner|title=Fads and Fallacies in the Name of Science|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=X0HCAgAAQBAJ&pg=PT71|date=May 4, 2012|publisher=Courier Corporation|isbn=978-0-486-13162-7|pages=71–}}</ref>
