Project Prometheus is a United States government-funded research on Gray Tech artifacts conducted by the Special Research Projects Administration. The project was officially funded by then President Harvey McCullen, who insisted that all ongoing studies of the Gray Tech components are classified above top secret. Center of Gray Tech research was taken place in SRPA 7, located in Boulder, Colorado before it was relocated to SRPA 11, in Nevada's Black Rock Desert, after a fatal experiment with the Gray Tech components caused the deaths of five members of the research staff on January 4, 1953.
