A crashed spy plane in Nevada’s desert offers insight into the state’s history of military aviation testing and the UFO conspiracy theories it touched off.

On Oct. 25, 1967, an SR-71 Blackbird spy plane called Aspen 28 crashed outside of Lovelock. This week, host Joey Lovato heads out into rural Nevada with nuclear physicist and aerospace enthusiast Taylor Wilson to find the wreckage. Along the way, Joey talks with Area 51 historian Peter Merlin to learn about the history of the secretive military base.
