KEY INTELLIGENCE TASK 91007
CIA-STARGATE
PDF Scan: PDF
Open AI Summary
The documents from the CIA's Stargate program provide information about a target area with unusual activities and purpose. The area is associated with high technology diagnostics and emanations that may cause physical maladies. There are large pyramid-shaped objects with spinning motion, as well as bars, disks, and elongated objects present in the area. Another assessment suggests that the area is associated with storage and loading, possibly underground, and may have chemical munitions. There are shaking and vibration motions, and the ceiling may have a sliding/opening capability. The main object(s) in the area have missile-like shapes, and there are smaller objects with fan-type shapes. Another assessment indicates that the main function of the area is related to mines, possibly mine assembly and staging/deployment. The area may have been a mineral mine and is dependent on a water supply. The target site is remote and may be involved in munitions storage/staging. This report provides an overview of the assessments made by different sources.

- Many disarrayed thin elongated objects are present.
c. Overall area is flat with features incorporated into very rugged
terrain.

additional source after the initial report was completed:
a. (U) SOURCE 018: tDOI: 24 Jan 91).
b. (S/NF/LIMDIS) DATA SUMMARY:
- Site may be a shallow-buried missile launch
facility.
- Site appears to have one-story cinder block
structures with sloping walls that have earth-cover to
blend in with terrain:
o Surrounding area has natural looking
indentations.
o There seem to be thin translucent panels to the
walls.
o Long pointed cylinders (probably missiles) may
be inside the buildings.
o Possible missiles launched from within the
building "break through" the translucent panels.
- Front ends of the cylinders seem to have a
compressed mixture with a sticky, rubbery texture that.
is probably a high energy explosive.
