Whether "Blackstar", "Brilliant Buzzard", "Aurora", "Sentinel", "FB-22", "Stealth Blimp" or whatever else is/was supposed to be there, it most certainly requires a lot of space. I don't believe that all of these actually existed or operated from "Area 51", but I should think that out of the whole bunch of rumored projects, there surely must have been one or two that did fly experimentally, and that base sure was the place for them. Now as to whatever could STILL be flying from there, who could tell? I for one refuse the notion that the U.S. never cared to give the SR-71 any valuable successor.
