The odd thing is, at this same time David Bowie was making (The man who fell to Earth). Now, he was dang sure an Alien in that movie. It was filmed here in NM, in the town Artesia when they had that old downtown hotel. One of the staff members in that hotel, accidentally saw him and how he really did look. He was kind of like a disguised scout to try and look human. Sent here to find water because his planet and his family ,was drying up and dying. He never was able to finish his mission.
But he did get rich here on Earth. He knew how to invent things we didn't have yet.
