The Roswell Nurse Who Talked to an Alien
The summer of 1947 in Roswell, New Mexico, is famous for one reason: something crashed. While debates rage about what that something was, one story stands out, offering a potential glimpse into communication far beyond our world. It’s the story of an Army Air Force nurse who didn’t just see wreckage or strange bodies, but supposedly sat face-to-face with a survivor from another world and heard its secrets.
This incredible account comes to us years later, through documents said to have been guarded for decades by Army Air Force flight nurse Matilda O’Donnell MacElroy. Stationed with the renowned 509th Bomb Group at Roswell Army Air Field, MacElroy’s life reportedly took an unbelievable turn in July 1947.
The Crash Site and the Survivor
Following the crash, MacElroy was apparently sent to the debris field. Amidst the strangeness, she encountered something astonishing: a survivor. But this being wasn’t human. It was small, frail-looking, with grayish skin, large dark eyes, a disproportionately large head, and only three fingers on each hand. Despite the physical differences and the creature’s damaged state, MacElroy sensed intelligence and awareness.
This being, later identified as “Airl,” was described as an officer, pilot, and engineer belonging to a group called “The Domain Expeditionary Force.” While its physical body (referred to as a ‘doll body’ or ‘avatar’) was damaged beyond repair, the consciousness within – what Airl called an “IS-BE” (Immortal Spiritual Being) – was intact.
Opening Communication: Thoughts Across the Void
What happened next is the core of this stunning story. MacElroy found herself assigned to communicate with Airl. The challenge? Airl didn’t speak vocally. Instead, communication happened directly, mind-to-mind. MacElroy reported receiving thoughts, concepts, and emotions from Airl, which she interpreted into English. It was a demanding process, requiring intense focus.
Over several weeks in July and August 1947, within the secure confines of the Roswell base, MacElroy conducted a series of “interviews” with Airl. Guarded closely, she became the sole conduit for understanding this visitor from the stars.
Airl’s Revelations: Secrets of The Domain and Earth
According to MacElroy’s reported notes and transcripts, Airl shared information that rewrites everything we think we know about Earth, history, and our place in the cosmos. Here are some of the key ideas Airl conveyed:
- Immortal Spiritual Beings (IS-BEs): Airl explained that the true essence of beings like itself – and humans – is not the physical body, but an immortal, non-physical entity, an IS-BE. These beings have existed for trillions of years, creating and experiencing universes.
- The Domain: Airl’s civilization, “The Domain,” is vast, ancient, and technologically advanced, controlling a huge swath of the galaxy. They are primarily explorers and expansionists, but not necessarily invaders in a military sense. Their interest in Earth was part of their broader operations.
- Earth as a Prison: This is perhaps the most shocking concept Airl shared. According to the reported conversations, Earth is not a typical planet. It serves as a dumping ground, a “prison planet,” for IS-BEs deemed undesirable by an older, vast, and malevolent power structure referred to as the “Old Empire.”
- The Memory Wipe: Before being sent to Earth, IS-BEs captured by the Old Empire have their memories erased. They are then forced into biological bodies (like human ones) and trapped in a cycle of birth, death, and reincarnation, forgetting their true nature and origin each time. Electronic force screens and memory-wipe mechanisms supposedly prevent IS-BEs from easily leaving Earth upon bodily death.
- History Rewritten: Airl suggested that much of Earth’s known history, science, and religion has been manipulated or fabricated by the Old Empire’s agents on Earth to keep the IS-BE population controlled, ignorant, and focused on physical survival and conflict rather than spiritual awareness and escape.
- The Danger of Earth: Airl considered Earth a hazardous place, not just because of the prison system, but due to its chaotic atmosphere, geological instability, and the often violent and primitive nature of its dominant species (humans).
- The Roswell Mission: Airl’s mission was related to investigating the loss of a Domain patrol centuries ago near Earth and the effects of nuclear explosions, which apparently can interfere with IS-BEs and the space-time fabric in ways concerning to The Domain. The crash was an accident, possibly caused by an atmospheric electrical discharge.
What is the Domain
Airl, belonged to a civilization known as “The Domain.” This wasn’t just a single planet or species, but depicted as an immense and ancient interstellar society controlling huge sections of this galaxy and others. According to Airl’s reported communications, The Domain is made up of eternal, non-physical consciousnesses called IS-BEs (Immortal Spiritual Beings) who operate highly advanced physical ‘doll bodies’ or avatars to interact with the universe. Possessing technology far exceeding human grasp, including telepathy and faster-than-light travel, The Domain functions as administrators of their vast territory. Their interest in Earth stemmed from managing their space, looking into past events like lost patrols, and monitoring activities such as atomic tests which they felt could affect space itself. The narrative also places The Domain in opposition to an “Old Empire,” the group supposedly responsible for turning Earth into a prison planet and trapping beings here through processes like memory erasure. This description of The Domain provides the essential background for understanding Airl’s perspective as shared in the book.
What is the Old Empire
This group is portrayed as another ancient, vast spacefading power structure, but one characterized by control and malevolent actions. According to Airl’s account, it was this “Old Empire” that originally designated Earth as a prison planet, specifically for IS-BEs (Immortal Spiritual Beings) it considered troublesome or simply unwanted. Their reported method involves capturing these beings, using powerful technology to erase their memories entirely, and then forcing them into biological bodies on Earth. The story suggests that mechanisms like electronic force screens were established to trap these beings in a long cycle of reincarnation, preventing easy escape upon physical death and keeping them unaware of their true situation. “The Old Empire’s” goal, as presented in the book, is to maintain this prison through manipulation and the suppression of knowledge, although its direct power is suggested to have lessened over immense periods, allowing The Domain to become more influential in this sector of space. This concept of “The Old Empire” is central to understanding the book’s explanation for Earth’s condition.
Airl’s Departure
The interviews continued until Airl, reportedly due to harsh interrogation methods (and torture), decided it could no longer sustain function within the damaged biological body. Having shared its knowledge with MacElroy, Airl consciously chose to disconnect its IS-BE awareness from the biological vessel. MacElroy witnessed this departure, describing it as a quiet cessation of the telepathic connection and physical life signs.

Imagine looking down at a field and seeing this weird picture: a face made of lines, kinda like a messed-up question mark, next to a circle with tons of tiny patterns. This picture, it’s believed, matches a message that sounds like a warning: “Beware the bearers of FALSE gifts & their BROKEN PROMISES. Much PAIN but still time. BELIEVE. There is GOOD out there. We oppose DECEPTION. Conduit CLOSING.“
The idea is, this message comes from aliens who see us, humans, as trapped souls, called IS-BEs. They say we’re stuck in a loop of being reborn over and over, because some super-advanced “old empire” is keeping us here. These aliens visiting us? They’re not strong enough to break us out of this loop. So, they try to send us messages, like this crop circle, hoping we’ll wake up.
They talk about a “conduit” closing, which is like saying their way of contacting us is being cut off. It’s like we have amnesia every time we’re reborn, forgetting who we really are. Think of someone with Alzheimer’s not recognizing their own family. We’re like that, trapped in a cycle, not knowing our true selves or each other.
This picture in the field? It’s like a cry for help, a reminder that we’re stuck and need to remember there’s good out there, and break free from this memory loss.
So, here’s the big question: are these IS-BE aliens actually trying to help us escape this endless loop we’re in? Or, do they just not care? Maybe they’re thinking, ‘Well, they’ve been wiped clean, they’re basically back to zero. They’re probably not worth much to us anymore.’ It’s like, our bodies, these human shells, are super outdated compared to their space-travel tech. Imagine visiting a planet where people are stuck in a tribal state, no memory of anything else. Would we try to rescue them? Or would we just shrug and say, ‘Game over,’ and watch from a distance, hoping they figure it out themselves? It’s kind of a depressing thought. Are we just a lost cause to them, something to observe from afar?
A Legacy of Secrets
Matilda O’Donnell MacElroy supposedly kept her notes and the transcripts of these interviews hidden for 60 years, fearing repercussions from shadowy government figures who silenced others connected to the Roswell incident. Only late in life, feeling her own end was near, did she reportedly mail the documents to Lawrence Spencer, asking him to share them with the world after her death.
Whether you view it as hidden history or incredible fiction, the story relayed through the “Alien Interview” documents offers a detailed and thought-provoking account unlike any other from the Roswell saga. It speaks not just of crashed ships, but of direct communication, revealing purported secrets about ancient galactic empires, the nature of our own existence, and Earth’s strange place in a potentially crowded universe – all through the recorded experiences of one Army nurse who found herself talking to the stars.
