More about the book

The Tonopah Test Range in Nevada, established in 1957, served as a crucial site for testing ballistic characteristics and non-nuclear components of atomic bombs during the Cold War. Known as Area 52, it has facilitated various military operations, including training exercises and the development of advanced technologies like the F-117A stealth fighter. The range remains significant today, managed by Sandia National Laboratories and the Air Force Materiel Command, continuing its legacy as an essential asset for the United States' nuclear arsenal and military capabilities.
