What is this at Area51?

by johnlewisdesign

I was reading a post comment about someone's gramps and his booklet from the 1955 nuke testing by the US (imgur gallery) and found a weird squiggle on the satellite image (screengrab), just north of the Northernmost and largest blast crater on the site (that I saw).

I would really love to know what it is - failed rocket? Unstable flight testing? Cables?

Can someone point me to some historical info on it please? Thanks in advance.

Without having the actual coordinates it's hard to verify but it looks like instrumentation cable from some kind of underground experiment.
