If I recall, Carter said something similar. He never mentioned it again.
“President Clinton swears he looked into the Area 51 matter and did not find any aliens.”
Area 51 has long been an admitted weapons development site in Nevada. But for those of you who are looking for UFOs, you wont find them there. Thats not what they do.
The development of aircraft has been accomplished there but the actual experimentation flights were sortied at Groom Lake. The most famous were the U-2, designed by Lockheeds Skunk Works head Kelly Johnson. And then the Archangel, later called the SR-71. The newest known is the Aurora but a practical use hasnt been admitted yet. The original unit was the 1129 SAS later to be determined the 9th SRW. Main site at Beale AFB in California and the support of the 9th PSD. Thats where a majority of the NASA space suits are located as they are used by pilots in the U-2, the TR, and the SR. The SR program was shut down by Clinton in 1997 with six left on the inventory. It is still a requested craft for air shows at military reservations. It has been replaced by the RQ-4 Global Hawk which is predominately slower but better equipped for surveillance.
This is common knowledge. But since bright star, the government has allowed the mystique to remain. It takes the minds off what is really going on there. At the moment a large group of people are trying to figure out a way to storm the facility. Good luck on that one.

What that he is one.
He’ll give them free healthcare and driver licenses too.
We have the “Ancient Aliens” shows to do that....
I thought Bernie looked like an alien out of Men in Black.
