There is a page on the DLR site under the Black Projects tab called "Crashed Test Flight out of Area 51" that has always been of interest to me. The event happened in the summer of 1999. The page gives two coordinates of the resulting huge fire which i put into Google Earth. Very near those coordinates (just to the SW) is what looks like a scar in the earth that doesn't match any of the surrounding geographic terrain. It is at 37 21.29 N, 115 43.05 W It is circular in appearance with what looks like an entry trail from the southwest; you need to zoom in and out to see it well. If you plot the two coordinates from the web page and look at the "impact" area it could easily be leftover impact evidence of a crash. has anyone ever noticed this before? i doubt the folks that run the place would have done the restoration effort necessary to hide the scar since it was before the days of easily obtainable sat images. just to start some interesting dialog. CSI Area 51 via satellite.
