The Road to Area 51
2009-04-10
After decades of denying the facility's existence, five former insiders speak out

#5  The best UFO Story has nothing to do with Area 51.

That there are Alien Bodies in cold storage in Florida.

Then President Richard Nixon supposedly showed them to golfing buddy, TV personality and movie actor Jackie Gleason (Sheriff Buford Justice - Smokey & The Bandit) in 1971...

Doncha love conspiracies?

#2  There are a lot of implied falsehoods here. The government has never denied the existence of a facility there. How could they restrict it without admitting that it exists? They have denied that it is called Area 51, which is the truth, it isn't.
"Project Oxcart" is not some new revelation, it was the original codename for the project that led to the SR-71 via the single-seat A12. Collins's crash in a prototype A-12 has been publicly documented for many years.

The mysterious ultra-wide truck load in the picture is the mirror for the 200 inch Hale telescope, shown being moved to Mount Palomar in 1947. The same photo appears in the Glass Giant of Palomar by David Oakes Woodbury and (of course) it has nothing to do with the Groom Lake test site, aka Area 51.
