Summary of Annie Jacobsen's Area 51

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Area 51 is a riddle. Very few people comprehend what goes on there, and millions want to know. To many, Area 51 represents the Shangri-la of advanced espionage and war fighting systems.

#2 Area 51 is the location of the Central Intelligence Agency’s first peacetime aerial espionage program, which was partnered with the U. S. Air Force. It was also the location of several other government organizations born in the interim, such as the National Reconnaissance Office, the National Security Agency, and the Defense Intelligence Agency.

#3 Bob Lazar first met Edward Teller in 1982 when he was working at the Los Alamos Nuclear Laboratory in radioactive particle detection. Six years later, his life had reached an unexpected low. He’d been fired from his job at Los Alamos, and he and his wife had moved to Las Vegas.

#4 The land around Area 51 is restricted government land. There are no public highways, no shopping malls, and no twentieth-century urban sprawl. Everything visible from the air is restricted government land.
