Secrets of the Black World 14

In the 1989 George Knapp, a well-known and respected journalist with KLAS, did a series of interviews with a man named "Dennis" who made a claim. "Dennis" claimed to have worked at a small test facility near Area 51. He said he was involved in research that included the testing and reverse engineering exotic craft.

The aircraft, a series of 9 disks ranging in shape form a small circular nicknamed the "sports model" to a larger "top hat" style, were housed at super secret test facility code named "S4." A by product of the black budget skunk works test program at Groom Lake, Papoose Lake or S4 was a smaller more concealed location.

After several interviews with Knapp in locations ranging from a studio to a van, the true identity of the man emerged as Robert Scott Lazar. Lazar as it would turn out is perhaps the key element in the "saucer tales" that have been circulating about Area 51 and over the last 10 years has achieved a status as a pop culture icon within the UFO community.

As an individual, Lazar's credibility has been brought into question by a few UFO researchers. People tend to criticize Lazar primarily because of what appears to be lack of credentials, and a lack of a personal history. However, many times those same researchers have failed to truly explore his background. And to Lazar's credit he has produced several key items which lend creditability to his identity. Lazar, very early on, produced a W2 form which stated he worked for Naval Intelligence during the time when he says he worked at S4. This W2 which bears the code E-6722MAJ, and states his working location as Nevada also bears another anomaly. When contacted the IRS lists his tax background as secret and when contacted the DNI (Department of Naval Intelligence) will confirm a Robert Scott Lazar worked for them during that time period in Nevada but all other details are secret. Also during 1998 Jon Farhat, a noted Hollywood digital effects designer, created Boblazar.com. Although Lazar never benefited from its creation, during its development Farhat paid for several Russian satellite passes over S4, in hopes of catching a glimpse of the facility. During one such pass, the digital camera on board Mir caught a metallic disk 35ft in diameter lift off from a landing site about ½ mile from S4, fly over S4 then land again. Meanwhile the landing site can clearly be seen.

Bob Lazar's account which again lends credibility to his claim. The numerous black triangle aircraft which hover silently over the desert roads, exotic aircraft performing 90 degree turns over the Groom Mountains, and most of all the land grabs in which the government has annexed thousands of acres of land for no apparent reason.

As for the enigma of S4, People who have gotten too close have been detained and searched. Some are arrested, and have to pay a $600.00 dollar fine. Aircraft can be brought down out of the sky within 50 miles of the facility. Another reason why Lazars claims cannot be verified is because he is the only one who has come forward from the facility to speak. No one can go into these areas to verify anything.

However, Ground Zero and the S-4 team have obtained new information that may be a new witness to back up Lazar's claims. A 46 page diary, from a colleague of Lazar is being looked at and it not only gives revelations as to what happened to Lazar back in 1989, but also concurs with testimony Bob made regarding these amazing spacecraft. Joe Vanineti worked with Lazar at Los Alamos and is friends with Bob. His diary mentions the saucers, how they are propelled and the fact that when Bob went public with the incredible stories, his life was threatened many times. Ground Zero and the S-4 team are the only group who have been given the opportunity to bring these documents forward
