The runways are long so they could run commercial aircraft up to 300mph before lifting off.

(That’s probably what they’d say.)

$ or 5 miles to the southwest of Groom Lake. Can’t miss it, looks like the moon.

I thought all alien spacecraft were VTOL

Alien spacecraft don't land. They hover and extend ladders, and only appear in desolate places.

Go a little further west and find the area that appears blood red.

The "moonscape" area is, of course, where the majority of CONUS nuclear tests took place. There is one enormous crater there, which was created by the Sedan test, which explored the use of nuclear weapons for excavation purposes.
