Interest is growing in Area 51 in the U.S. amid speculations that the American military had obtained technology from aliens and re-engineered the technology. Because of the secrecy surrounding the military facility, former State Secretary Hillary Clinton said that she would have the place investigated if she is picked as the Democratic president candidate and wins the November 2016 election.
Reports of the U.S. re-engineering alien technology had Russia worried, according to Thecontroversialfiles. The Kremlin worries stem from the Cold War arms race between Washington and Moscow as the two powers tried to gain military-technological advantage.
Part of the race was the creation by the Soviet Union then of Project ISIS in 1961, which included some Egyptologists from the Soviet Academy of Sciences, military experts and scientists. It was led by Sami Sharaf, a close aide of the Egyptian President Gamel Abdel Nasser.
A documentary released in 2014, shown over Sci-Fi Tv channel, claims that Project ISIS - which has nothing to do with the Islamic jihadists of today - allegedly discovered a mummified body of a 13,000-year-old alien astronaut. The sarcophagus was found in a tomb in the Giza plateau.
Sci-Fi Tv insists that forensic experts who analyzed the video confirmed that its contents were authentic. The network reportedly bought from Russian sources the 1-hour, 22-minute film that allegedly came from the KGB, the Soviet spy agency.
However, those who doubt the authenticity of the claim that what was discovered were the remains of an alien astronaut say that being found in Egypt, it was likely the royal remains of an Egyptian king or noble. When the tomb was opened, the Russian soldiers had to run out because of fumes. But in the video, they eventually returned wearing protective suits and gas masks.
The discovery may have happened in Egypt, but many Russians are believers in alien visits to Earth. On Monday, a multi-colored light show in Birobidzhan sparked another round of alien invasion speculations, reports Daily Mail. A local resident describes the event as similar to the Orson Welles broadcast in October 1938 of the H.G. Wells book of Martian invasion of Earth. The broadcast was a radio adaptation of the book "The War of The World," performed by Welles and his Mercury Theatre artists.
Listeners in the U.S. thought there was a real alien invasion and it resulted in fake news bulletins, similar to today's hoax internet stories which is what some people think of the Project ISIS documentary.
