This important part of the story is a fact not and not fiction. Now there's a job I'd like to have.Īrea 51, Groom-lake, Dreamland, The Ranch, whatever you prefer to call it is really an actual top secret government military base where they really do test top secret ultra high technology military hardware weapons in secret away from the public's prying eyes. Just a couple of weeks ago, the United Nations named an Ambassador to Outer Space. Keep in mind that pretty soon you'll hit a stone wall, as anything the government might know about aliens and UFO's is officially denied. If you're going to dive in full time, I guess this is a pretty good starting point. So in the end, I don't know how much one gets from any of this. Their Project Tarayoka (don't know if the spelling's correct) also produced a flying saucer, although looking a lot clunkier than the one we put together. Apparently Russia has their own version of Area 51, called Saratov, an air base two hundred miles outside of Moscow. Still, there's some intriguing stuff here, like the government's construction of a 'flying disc simulator', flown for the first time in 1960. On the flip side, one questions Lazar's credibility with his admission to and conviction for pandering back in the Eighties. He claims first hand knowledge of being inside an alien space ship, paying particular emphasis to cramped quarters and no objects with sharp corners. Though vetted for top secret security clearance, Lazar goes ahead and reveals what he knows and had seen while working at 51. Most of the documentary centers on the recollections of a Robert Lazar, a scientist who had 'Majestic' clearance for a research project in Area 51, the Holy Grail of UFO researchers. The film offers the intriguing question however, was Blue Book real or a smoke screen to hide what was really going on? Interesting. The project was closed in 1969, purportedly with no new information to be added to what was already known and classified. government into the subject of unidentified flying objects, commissioned by President Truman in 1952. Like Project Blue Book, the only official investigation by the U.S. Still, it's almost fifteen years old and I don't know if I learned a whole lot I didn't already know about the UFO phenomenon. I have only a nominal interest in the subject, but found the subject matter to be intelligently researched and presented here. I guess if you're a UFO enthusiast, this might be one of the definitive documentaries in your collection.
