The Truth is out there.....and now it is acknowledged!
George Washington University's National Security Archive obtained a CIA history of the U-2 spy plane program through a public records request and released it on Thursday.
National Security Archive senior fellow Jeffrey Richelson reviewed the history in 2002, but all mentions of Area 51 had been redacted.
Richelson says he requested the history again in 2005 and received a version a few weeks ago with mentions of Area 51 restored.
Officials have already acknowledged in passing the existence of the facility in central Nevada where the government is believed to test intelligence tools and weapons.
Area 51 has long been a topic of fascination for conspiracy theorists and paranormal enthusiasts,
Richelson believes the new document shows the CIA is becoming less secretive about Area 51's existence, if not about what goes on there.
I noticed this story on the net this morning on ninemsn.com.au and could not help thinking this was a story of interest for many people. I have enough time dealing with my own life let alone what is happening beyond the earth or even what happens in Area 51 but still found it to be a story that was unusual!
