Area 51, a military facility in the Nevada desert, is supposedly home to captured alien spacecraft. But according to recently declassified information, many of the UFO sightings in the area may be attibutable to the A-12 Oxcart, a futuristic-looking spyplane that was tested at the facility in the 1960s.

Journalistic Skillz
What does having the right to bear arms have to do with journalism? In the words of the Greek philosopher Journissius, "It is genuine imitation journalism that imitates genuinely the jounalism that is imitated and genuine."

UFO's and Spy Planes
Same old propaganda. Anyone who actually studied UFO's would know this is a facile and disingenuous explanation. What is a Spy Plane? It's designed to fly really high and fast and not be seen by anyone. This "explanation" in no way accounts for Close Encounter sighting (500 feet or less) made by credible witnesses in the thousands. Sorry, Mr. Government Man; you got to do better than the Old Spy Plane Explanation. It's as worn out as Weather Balloons.
