In an Aug. 4, 1955 photo provided by the CIA, the prototype U-2 spy plane is tested at what became known at Area 51 in Nevada. (AP Photo/CIA)
As far as "best of 2014" lists go, the CIA has a pretty irresistible one: On Dec. 22 it started tweeting links to the 10 most popular articles of the year that it shared on Twitter, and the agency arrived at No. 1 yesterday, tweeting: "Reports of unusual activity in the skies in the '50s? It was us." The accompanying link directs readers to The CIA and the U-2 Program, 1954-1974, a 272-page document from 1998 the CIA tweeted a link to in early July, reported KAKE at the time.
The upshot of the report is that the CIA was the culprit behind more than half of the UFO sightings logged in the 1950s and 1960s.
As VentureBeat reports, the CIA tested its U-2 spy planes at 60,000 feet, an altitude that seemed impossible for man to reach at the timeleading observers, specifically pilots, to suspect it wasn't man up there at all.
VentureBeat highlights a portion of the report that explains that in the mid-1950s, most commercial airliners stuck below 20,000 feet; military aircraft kept it below 40,000 feet.

Ping.
Instantly thought of that as well. After all these years, those photos have never been debunked. In fact, nearly every test has determined that McMinnville object is big, and distant. Whatever else it may be, it’s real.
Now, that is funny !!!!!
“Who keeps the Martians under wraps?
We do! We do!”
Your federal Stonecutters
Why do you mock me?
O.K. That clears it up. The CIA told us the truth and we can believe them because they never lie. Especially Barack Obama’s CIA.
Homeland Security
So they finally admit to being on Mr. Gilmore’s property. ‘Bout time.
At least they don't keep all the really good drugs to themselves.
“Why is it that virtually EVERYBODY thinks that if there are Space Aliens, ETs or some kind of Space Travelers, they would have some superior intelligence relative to us ?”
Because they managed to get here from a LONG ways away, while we’ve not figured out how to move ourselves beyond our moon, which is only about 10 earth-circumferences away, and we can’t even get back there today.
LOL, I missed Morons from Outer Space.
Uh, because if they are from somewhere else and they were able to get here,and we don’t know how to get there, they would have to be.
Look, if there are extra-terrestrials visiting us, they would have to come from outside the Solar System. Based on all we know intelligent life is unlikely anywhere else in this solar system. (Based on the last two presidential elections, I’m not too sure it exists here! )
The nearest other star to the sun is Proxima Centauri 4.24 light years from us.
It takes light, traveling at 186,000 feet per second 4.24 years to get there. And based on what we know of Proxima Centauri, it’s unlikely any planets like earth are orbiting it.
Which means those extraterrestrials are coming from a star system a whole lot further away.
If they are doing this, they must be using a propulsion system very different from anything we have as yet or have even conceived. They could be using things like wormholes, gravity waves, who knows what?
So they would have to be a lot smarter than us technologically and scientifically.
And why do I have this continual urge to play with my mountain of mashed potatoes?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqhE7ieH2R8
When the nine foot tall Kanamits land, with their metal teeth and the biting and hurting, oh ho!
Ah ha, then we’ll see, why, they laughed and made jokes but I proved with geometric logic that it wasn’t strawberries they were probing up the ol’ wazoo,
You know, I proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that a duplicate key to the Kanamite galley DID exist and ....
The last time that happened to me, I told the doc he’d better buy me a nice dinner.
