Review: A great reading experience! - I bought this book because I am interested in Area 51 and the reviews were scored quite well for it. Now I am letting you know the truth, this book is an incredible read!! It should have six stars! I'm reading this book around the clock. I can't put it down! It has the right details, the right method of delivering the story, everything needed to make a great reading experience. If you're not interested in the subject matter, don't worry. As the story unfolds, you will keep reading until the end. It's that good.
Review: Great read. Welcome to Reality. - I was turned on to this book which was published in 2011, during Joe Rogan’s interview of its author Annie Jacobsen in 2020 on his show-the Joe Rogan Experience on YouTube. Initially, Ms. Jacobsen appeared to be promoting her book but she convinced me to read Area 51. She said she has received a lot of hate and grief from the UFO believers who say Area 51 is indeed tied to extraterrestrials and alien technology. Like Joe Rogan, I’ve always kept an open mind that there might be extraterrestrial life along with alien technology. Well, Ms. Jacobsen presents a strong case that Area 51 is actually a secret govt test facility for cutting edge spy aircraft. And that it was the result of the Cold War and the USA’s ongoing research into stealth technology. There is a sad angle that the US govt participated in non consensual human experiments of children and adults in regard to radiation effects and that’s very very very disturbing but not surprising. The govt has deflected attention of this facility thru misinformation and manipulation of the media. Kind of like now. Ms. Jacobsen’s research is tedious, historical, and extremely creditable. There are NO bug eyed aliens! This alleged alien tech (flying saucers etc) is actually human-engineered war fighting and espionage technology. Great book, follows history from end of WW2 thru Cold War to present. I could not put it down, kept me on the edge of my seat. I’m surprised that Ms. Jacobsen has not been fully awarded the Pulitzer prize yet.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A good read but with unanswered questions.
*by R***G on June 14, 2025*

Overall, a very good and informative book. I thought that the author did an excellent job of discussing the weapons and aircraft testing. I do have some questions about the author's treatment of The Roswell Incident. Let me lay my cards on the table before I get started. I have serious doubts as to the possibility of alien visitation, but I am open to that idea if I see some evidence. Having said that, the author, using apparently one source, lays out an explanation that seems, to me at least, to be even less plausible than alien visitation. If I understand it correctly, this explanation involves Russian children, who, on Stalin's orders, had been either genetically or surgically modified to look like aliens by Josef Mengele, and were then placed in a flying disk designed by the Horten brothers, and then sent to fly into the airspace of New Mexico and crash so as to cause panic in the US. Here are some of my questions: 1. How was the craft refueled? 2. How did Mengele modify the children in just two years (which is apparently how long Stalin had him, if he was captured in 1945). 3. Are we confident that Mengele had at his disposal medical techniques that would seem to be a stretch for even today? 4. Did the Russians have the technology, in 1947, to remotely pilot this Horten craft at great distances? 5. Is there any good explanation to explain how this craft supposedly displayed flying characteristics that were well beyond the capabilities of 1947? 6. If the Russians were trying to trick the US into thinking that it was being invaded by aliens, why did they put Russian writing on the inside of the craft where they knew that it would be found? To sum up, a good enjoyable read but some questions were not adequately answered.
