<human>:  I have a question about the alien abduction conspiracy theories. When did the first alien abductions occur?
<bot>: The first alien abductions are believed to have occurred in the late 1940s. The first reported abduction was in 1947, when a woman named Betty and her husband were driving home from a vacation in New Mexico. They were driving through the desert when they saw a bright light in the sky. They stopped their car and got out to investigate, and they were abducted by aliens.
