Inside Area 51

 

A compilation video has emerged that includes some exclusive new information about Area 51. It begins with an interview with an Area 51 engineer, but the second segment is the most interesting. It is a documentary from 1957 made by the CIA and was intended strictly for internal use alone. It was only declassified in 2006. It tells the story of the foundation of Area 51 in April 1955 in order to carry out "Project AQUATONE", one of the most secret operations in American history. It involved the testing of something they called "CL282- the Inquisitive Angel"; later on to be revealed as the U2 spyplane. The aircraft was built in a sealed workshop at Lockheed's Advanced Development Projects "Skunk Works" facility in Burbank, California. The government needed somewhere to test it, but Lockheed's usual test centres at Edwards Air Force Base and Palmdale were not secretive enough. They needed somewhere more remote and easier to protect so they chose the Groom Lake area in Nevada. The CIA purchased the land and built the secret base, which started out very simply; just a dirt runway and a cluster of prefab temporary buildings. It expanded over time. A no-fly zone was established above it. The borders were patrolled by guards from the Atomic Energy Commission. They were the Camo-Dudes of the 1950's and, interestingly, they drove around in unmarked white vans just like they do today. Because Area 51 was far less famous in those days, there were far fewer, if any, nosy trespassers; let alone tourist buses from Las Vegas and people wanting to "storm" it. The original nickname for the base was "Watertown", one of many it has had during its history. Just like in modern times, personnel were taken to and from the base by aeroplane, the Janet flights of the time. There was a regular service between Watertown and Burbank for Lockheed employees, all completely secret of course. The U2 was tested thoroughly at Watertown by a huge team of engineers led by Clarence "Kelly" Johnson. Its performance was, by the standards of the day, like science fiction. It could reach 70,000 feet, breaking the previous aircraft altitude record by a wide margin. Another aircraft, the SR71 Blackbird, broke all previous speed records as well; and the public knew nothing about it for years. Area 51 is in a very difficult location to maintain, somewhere normally not fit for large scale human habitation. It is very dry with no natural groundwater. All supplies have to be brought in from outside. It is very hot in summer and very cold in winter. When the dryness occasionally breaks, it does so with violent rain or snowstorms.

There are two reasons for this; firstly, such topics are classified even higher than the already top secret spyplane programme; and secondly, there is no evidence Area 51 was involved in UFO research until at least the late 1980's. Before then I believe Wright Patterson Air Force Base was the central hub of this conspiracy and may very well still be, see: https://hpanwo-radio.blogspot.com/2019/02/programme-314-podcast-irena-scott.html. The above video is a fascinating revelation and an important historical document for anyone interested in that most enigmatic of locations.
