Report: Pentagon deliberately released Area 51 UFO conspiracy theories to conceal advanced weapons programs

Turns out, the Pentagon’s been playing cosmic prankster! A new report spills the beans: those Area 51 UFO tales were cooked up to hide the F-117 Nighthawk stealth plane. Air Force folks even tricked their own with fake alien projects like “Yankee Blue.” So, next time you spot a glowing orb, it might just be Uncle Sam testing a fancy gadget, not E.T. phoning home.
