- GE-1 HIT WITH APPARENT E.M.P. DURING
"AREA-51" CONFESSION
-
- Art Bell hosts "Coast-to-Coast AM,"
a nightly talk show from Pahrump, Nevada, a small town near "Area
51" (an airbase which the U.S. government officially denies the existence
of, despite the massive size of the complex. UFO's are frequently seen
near this site.) Art's radio program is relayed from the studio in Pahrump
to the network headquarters by satellite GE-1. At about 1AM EST, Friday,
September 12, 1997, he designated one phone line for Area 51 employees
to call in and "spill the beans." Several interesting and convincing
callers took the bait. Then came one bizarre call from an obviously distraught
and terrified man who claimed to be a former Area 51 employee recently
discharged for "medical" reasons. He cited malevolent extraterrestrials
at Area 51 and an impending disaster that the government knew would take
out "major population centers." Midway through this call (according
to GE engineers) the satellite's "Earth sensor lost lock" and
the craft rolled into an attitude where it no longer pointed at the uplinks,
causing 50 channels to go off-air for about 30 minutes. Shortly after the
outage began, the live internet video feed from Art's studio was lost as
well.
-
- Unaware of these events, Bell continued
talking to the caller for another minute during the outage until he heard
a scream and the phone went dead. A reporter from Penthouse visiting the
studio to gather information for a story about the program witnessed the
event and furiously took notes. Minutes later, Bell received a call from
his network on a conventional analog "hotline" saying that he
was "off the air." He checked the uplink transmitter and saw
that it had suffered complete loss of communication with GE-1. At this
point they resumed transmission on a 56k digital phone line and went back
on the air. Then the analog "hotline" to the network cut out
and Art was unable to speak to network engineers.
-
- One of the first callers after the outage
was someone who claimed to be from Area-51 "security." He said
that his job was to "close gaps," the network had been "pulsed"
and that we "would not hear from the caller again." (An ElectroMagnetic
Pulse is a method of overloading electronic equipment in a target area;
EMP generators were funded under the original SDI research. The phenomenon
was discovered by accident during the 1960's when the phone network in
Hawaii was disabled by a nuclear test 800 miles distant.) Speculation about
an EMP continued as this was "verified" by several callers:
-
- A man from Kingston (also near area 51)
said he was on hold waiting to go on the air, and both his home telephone
lines went dead. Another caller, an RF engineer employed at Hughes AeroSpace
in Tucson (and an expert on EMP shielding), stated that he had suffered
"cloud bounce" from the pulse and his personal computer and digital
watch were wiped clean.
-
- A third caller reminded the audience
that author Nick Begich stated in his book "Angels don't Play this
HAARP" that a military antenna array in Alaska has the capability
to remove individual satellites from service and generate such pulses.
(Incidentally, the HAARP design bears a great similarity to the work of
Nikola Tesla, who publicly made claims about the potential of his inventions
to generate EMP anywhere on the planet.) Finally, another caller reminded
the audience of an event several months prior where it was confirmed that
a number of employees at the Cheyenne Mountain nuclear-hardened underground
base convinced as many friends and family as they could to move immediately
to a remote location in South America.
-
- Art closed the show by speculating on
whether (in the mind of the government) the "enemy" of National
Security had now become the American people.
