Mysterious Aircraft Crash Near Area 51 Just Got Weirder

Details remain scant about an unspecified U.S. Air Force aircraft, widely believed to be a drone of some kind, which came down in southern Nevada not far from Area 51 nearly two weeks ago. Whether the aircraft was ever actually inside Area 51's highly restricted airspace, also known as "The Box," is unknown. The mishap prompted authorities to temporarily close the airspace above the crash site, with some exemptions, while the wreckage was cleared. In a bizarre twist of events, the Air Force has publicly disclosed that it and the FBI are now investigating apparent strange tampering at the crash site afterward.

Ahh...the good old NTTR. My home away from home.

And nobody calls it the "Box." At least not in the AF. A "box" is part of female anatomy.

R-4808A is referred to as "The Container."
