Drone incursions target ‘Plant 42,’ said to be the birthplace to top secret tech

 In August 2024, alarming drone encounters were documented for seven nights above a highly secretive desert facility, according to new reports.

While mysterious drone incursions have made headlines in recent months, documents are now coming to light highlighting disturbing incidents around restricted airspace, including a desert facility known as “Plant 42,” said to be the birthplace of top-secret technology.

The facility, located in Palmdale, CA, is an aerospace brain trust with distinct ties to Area 51 in Nevada. Most notably, it uses JANET, the nickname of the hush-hush airline that shuttles workers from Las Vegas to Area 51 or to Area 52 near Tonopah. Plant 42 is described as a Mojave Desert enclave of brilliant engineers and aerospace brainiacs working on projects for  NASA, the US Air Force, and the CIA.

Plant 42 is the birthplace of many amazing machines, including the soon-to-be-unveiled B-21 Raider and the next generation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). All the big names are present at Plant 42. From Lockheed Martin’s Skunk Works to Northrop Grumman to McDonnell Douglas, the cutting-edge technologies deemed vital to national security come through the facility.

JFK assassination task force to reveal findings on UFOs, Area 51 and pledges Americans will get ‘the truth’

A top Republican lawmaker overseeing DOGE’s sweeping changes in Congress has vowed that Americans will soon get ‘the truth’ about UFOs and what secrets are hidden at Area 51. 

House Oversight Chairman James Comer, R-K.Y., this month created a task force to unveil long-kept government secrets of massive public interest. 

His group is a direct response to Donald Trump’s executive order to declassify secrets like the JFK assassination files, intelligence on Martin Luther King Jr.’s murder, and also the killing of Robert Kennedy. 

Trump has also pushed for the release of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein‘s death in prison and information on UFOs, also called unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP).

During the roll out of the new task force earlier this month its leader Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, standing next to Comer, said the group will uncover files on JFK’s assassination – which she believes involved multiple shooters – and UAP.

Speaking with Daily Mail’s podcast Welcome to MAGAland at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) this week, Comer, for the first time, committed to investigating and – possibly releasing – files on Area 51 as a part of Trump’s new mandate.

‘I don’t think the government’s been 100 percent truthful with the American people about what may or may not exist out there, especially in Area 51,’ Comer said in an exclusive interview, which was previewed on Daily Mail’s podcast Welcome to MAGAland.

President Trump Discusses Area 51, UFOs, and Aliens in Interview With Joe Rogan

President Trump sat down with America’s number one podcaster, Joe Rogan, in an interview that has already amassed nearly 10 million views in less than 10 hours.

In the interview, Trump and Rogan discussed a plethora of topics, such as the assassination attempt against his life, the FBI, Kamala Harris, the JFK files, RFK Jr., and much more.

Toward the end of the three-hour interview, Trump and Rogan switched gears to discuss Area 51, UFO reports, and aliens.

The topic was raised when Trump said, “There’s a lot of interest in people coming from space.”

Trump continued, “I interviewed a few people, but it’s never been my thing. I have to be honest. I have never been a believer. Area 51 is the number one tourist attraction in the whole country.”

”So anyway, I interviewed jet pilots that say they saw something,” added Trump.

Rogan responded, “I had a couple of them here.”

The 45th president added that the pilots said, “We saw things, sir, that was very strange, like a round ball, but it wasn’t a comet or meteor, and it was going four times faster than an F-22, and it was round.”

Secrets of Area 51: Metallic egg-shaped UFO the size of an SUV was kept at the highly-classified Air Force base in the 1980s, whistleblower claims

An egg-shaped metallic UFO was kept at Area 51 in the 1980s, a whistleblower claims in an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com.

Engineers at the Nevada airbase claimed the CIA found the strange craft in the desert and brought it to them for investigation – but later shipped it to another base after they were unable to get inside the object.

Eric Taber has been a defense aerospace contractor for 13 years and has held a security clearance to work on military aircraft.

In an interview with DailyMail.com, he revealed the story his late great uncle Sam Urquhart, an Area 51 contractor, told him about a UFO at the mysterious desert base.

Taber testified in May to the Pentagon‘s UFO investigation unit, the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), who are collecting accounts of alleged government possession of non-human craft.

The claim – though an unverified story from a now-deceased witness – is part of a long history of rumors about potential extraterrestrial craft or futuristic spaceships stored at the Nevada desert airbase near Groom Lake, north of Las Vegas.

The news comes after whistleblowers told Congress the government has a secret program to capture crashed or landed ‘non-human’ vehicles and has for decades been attempting to glean technological insights from these alleged out-of-this-world objects.

The claims have prompted lawmakers to draft legislation to disclose any such programs, currently working its way through Congress.

Taber spoke to DailyMail.com only about his great uncle’s story, declining to comment on any of his own work as a defense contractor.

Janet Airlines flies secret jets out of Las Vegas to AREA 51

Here’s an airline you’ll likely never fly on – no matter how much money you have.

Janet Airlines Boeing 737 planes travel to one of the most mysterious and talked-about places on Earth – Area 51, deep in the Nevada desert.

There, the United States government develops its most secretive military technology.

The ultra-secret base is also rumored to host crashed extraterrestrial spacecraft – and even aliens themselves (although cynics claim this provides a useful distraction from exotic aircraft and weapons development that happens there).

But the Janet jets that take workers and government officials there are altogether more nondescript, with the passenger airliners not believed to contain any particularly exciting features. 

Janet – whose letters are rumored to stand for Joint Air Network for Employee Transportation, or Just Another None Existent Terminal – has a fleet of six Boeing 737 jets. 

Its pilots also fly seven smaller Beechcraft propeller planes.

Janet planes making the 87 mile trip from Vegas to Area 51 describe their destination as the mysterious-sounding Station 3. 

Flight trackers show the jets traveling part of the way there, but they turn their transponders off around 12 miles before they reach their final destination, according to journalist Matt Lillywhite.

Area 51 expert slams US government for raiding his home: I’ve lost faith in the justice system

The home of an Area 51 website owner was violently raided by more than a dozen armed FBI agents in November, and since then, Joerg Arnu has received minimal explanation for the bombardment that caused $25,000 in damages to his property.

Area 51 expert Joerg Arnu explained on “Tucker Carlson Tonight” that the search was related to images he posted on his website.

“I can’t get ahold of anyone. Three doors were kicked in. A country gate was busted. My girlfriend was dragged out of the house in Las Vegas. I was dragged out of the house in Rachel. And nobody can give us any answers,” Arnu explained Friday.

Arnu has pleaded for an explanation from the U.S. Justice Department for months, but has largely remained in the dark. 

“I published photos of Area 51 on my website, which is something I have done for 20 years without anyone really taking issue with it. And all of a sudden, this thing comes out of the blue crashing down on my homes. I really still don’t have an explanation,” the expert continued.

FBI Agents Raid Home of Owner of a Popular Website that Tracks Everything About the Secret Air Base in Area 51

The FBI reportedly raided the home of the owner of a popular website that tracks everything related to Area 51.  This is according to a report from a lead investigative reporter of KLAS TV, an affiliate of CBS.

“FBI agents came down hard on the operator of a popular website devoted to all things Area 51–its programs, lore, and legacy. More than a dozen agents served a no-knock warrant on the Rachel, NV home of Joerg Arnu, owner of http://dreamlandresort.com…” investigative reporter George Knapp wrote.

Joerg Arnu is the founder of Dreamland Resort and Webmaster. According to IMDb, Joerg Arnu grew up in Germany where he obtained a Masters degree in Electrical Engineering and started his career as a software developer. Today Joerg is a 25-year Area 51 research veteran, living in Rachel, NV, just outside the gates of Area 51. His Dreamland Resort website is all about the military R&D aspect of Area 51, Black Projects and Military Aviation.

“For 20 years and counting Dreamland Resort has been the most comprehensive source for information on Area 51, Black Projects, the Nellis Ranges, TTR, and the ET Highway. The webmaster is a 25-year Area 51 Research veteran and a resident of Rachel, NV, right outside the gates of Area 51,” according to the Dream Land Resort website.

George Knapp added, “They seized all computers, files, phones, photos. At the same time, another team of a dozen or more agents stormed into Arnu’s Las Vegas home, seized all digital devices and files, held his girlfriend at gunpoint.”

The motive for the raid is still unknown.

Man in Clown Mask Attempts to Steal Jet to Fly to Area 51 to See Aliens

A Las Vegas man is in considerable legal trouble following a wild incident wherein he breached an airport’s security perimeter by way of a limousine and then donned a clown mask while attempting to commandeer a jet for a trip to Area 51 to see aliens. The multilayered misadventure reportedly unfolded last Wednesday evening when Matthew Hancock allegedly drove a limo through two metal fences surrounding the city’s McCarran International Airport. After pulling up alongside a jet on the tarmac, authorities say the man stepped out of his vehicle, put on a clown mask, and informed workers at the aircraft that he intended to “blow this place up” with a bomb.

According to police, Hancock then inexplicably got back inside the limousine and began to drive away, while the understandably alarmed airport personnel fled the scene. Fortunately, there was no standoff nor any altercation when cops caught up with the vehicle as the man is said to have surrendered immediately. It was then that things took an even stranger turn when Hancock reportedly revealed to police his reasoning for the brazen event. After telling them that there was a bomb in his vehicle, the man explained that he wanted to steal a jet and then somehow use it to journey to Area 51 “to look at aliens.”

Cops subsequently searched Hancock’s limousine and found a crude-looking fake bomb made out of what appeared to be an oxygen tank, a fire extinguisher, and various metal objects all strung together with Christmas lights. As one might imagine, the man was promptly arrested and has been charged with multiple crimes including threatening an act of terrorism.

Navy’s NEMESIS tied to UFO reports by former Area 51 veteran

A new report on The War Zone suggests the building interest in UFOs could be met with the same style of government response that previously hushed people who were convinced we were on the verge of meeting extra-terrestrial beings.

A Navy program called NEMESIS — Netted Emulation of Multi-Element Signature against Integrated Sensors — has the potential to overwhelm enemy sensor networks during combat. NEMESIS would make it very difficult for enemies to distinguish between fake and real targets.

Among the things NEMESIS might explain:

Read the full report, “Area 51 veteran and CIA electronic warfare pioneer weigh in on Navy UFO encounters,” on thedrive.com/the-war-zone.

“This takes me back to circa the 1960s when the CIA designed and was building the Mach 3 A-12 Blackbird to replace the U-2,” T.D. Barnes tells the website. Barnes worked in secret programs at Area 51 in the era of the transition to the SR-71 Blackbird, the fastest plane ever made for the U.S. government.

Barnes draws parallels between the capabilities of NEMESIS and electronic countermeasures that were in development around the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis.

And the program is loaded with military secrets, so don’t count on any official comment anytime soon.

Events over the past year have generated a wave of excitement for the UFO topic. The U.S. Navy’s statement that video of a 2004 UFO encounter is “real,” reporting from top U.S. news organizations and even the “Storm Area 51” event have pushed interest higher.

Government programs to discredit reports in the ’40s and ’50s often relied on statements that people were confusing UFOs and weather balloons. When these denials failed, the government resorted to programs meant to ridicule people who reported UFOs.
