Now Eric Taber, who has worked as a defense contractor for 13 years, has come forward to reveal what his late great uncle Sam Urquhart - who had worked as a contractor at the base - saw and heard during his time there.

"My great uncle served in the Air Force for 28 years, E8 rank [equivalent to a First Sergeant]," he told Mail Online in an interview. "He told me he worked at Area 51 from 1997 until 2014."

According to Taber, Urquhart had been mostly reluctant to talk about the specifics of his work until, one day while they were chatting on the back porch, he had decided to reveal the details of something that a senior EG&G engineer had told him about - an object that had been allegedly recovered intact in the desert by the CIA in the 1980s."The senior EG&G engineer described to my great uncle that it was egg-shaped, about the size of an SUV, smooth and seamless, metallic-looking, silverish gray in color, with no control surfaces, no flaps, no inlet, and no exhaust, and no writing or symbols on the outside," he recalled.

"These are the best and brightest engineers you can think of. They tried to no avail to figure out what the power source was, how to activate it, and how it works. They tried to induce electricity to it."

The engineers were allegedly unable to even penetrate the exterior of the craft, making it impossible to access whatever was inside. After a great deal of effort they were eventually able to acquire a small sample of its hull material for testing and determined that it had originated from beyond the Earth.

In the end, the object was shipped off to another base and his uncle never heard about it again.

"Sam said the American people would probably never get to see it," said Taber.
