The Truth about Area 51 Revealed in Area 51

My search continues on my question “why is the government hiding Area 51 from us” I’ve been doing some research lately. And I recently read on Newsweek an article called “The Truth About Area 51 Revealed in Area 51” published on May 12, 2011. http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2011/05/13/the-truth-about-area-51-revealed-in-area-51-by-annie-jacobsen.html 

What this article is about is the author Annie has reveals some top secrets about Area 51. In 2007 on Christmas eve when she was at a dinner an 88 year old scientist named Edward came up to her saying “Have I got a good story for you”. In the article she was talking about the things he was telling her like when she didn’t know that Area 51 was still classified and that the government has never officially admitted that Area 51 exists. She also talks about an uncovered about a reckless and dangerous side of Area 51 other then aliens and UFO’s but about the nuclear bombing range called the Nevada Test Site. The iron fist of the Atomic Energy Commission ran it. The article kinds of answered my curiosity question about what else they we’re hiding. When reading the article I know that they are hiding more and more things, we just need to find out later on or until someone else opens their mouth. When I was reading this article I wouldn’t know that Area 51 is what everyone else is trying to find out too. The article was pretty interesting when it was talking about nuclear bombing that they did that there and I didn’t know about but I’m guessing maybe you guys knew about it.  

The Truth Is Out There, but It's Classified

 The title of the article I read and writing a blog about is called The Truth is out there, but it’s classified and it was published in September 27, 2003. I found the article in New York Times and here the link where the article is found at http://www.nytimes.com/2003/09/27/opinion/the-truth-is-out-there-but-it-s-classified.html

In this article they we're talking about how Area 51 was first established in 1954 the large Air Force base in Nevada and how it was suppose to be used for U-2 spy plans and military hardware but they were using it to storage and study of captured extraterrestrials and their spacecraft. Area 51 is located 90 miles northwest of Las Vegas and they are very protected so people won’t see or go near it. When they did satellite photos of buildings and the runway that was a several miles long that was giving them hints. They said the secrecy surrounding Area 51 was obsessive and for the military too that they don’t like the acknowledge its existence. What the writer wants us to know about this article is that they might be hiding things that we don’t know about but just trying to cover up things we know. The article kind of relates to my curiosity question I had but it did answer that they we’re doing studies about spacecraft and other stuff. It helped me know that they are hiding things from us but they just don’t want us all to freak out and go crazy on what they know and found.
