Area 51

Area 51 is a secret U.S. Air Force military installation located at Groom Lake in southern Nevada. It's run by Edwards Air Force Base in southern California. For years there has been speculation about it, especially amid growing reports of UFO sightings nearby. The site originally became known as Area 51 after its designation on maps of the old Atomic Energy Commission.

The Southwestern part of the United States is where the vast majority of alleged UFO sightings are made, and for good reason: all four armed services use the desert states for testing and training purposes. Not because they want to keep watch on the "crash site" but because the desolate desert environment and predictable, dry climate are ideal for their work. The point is this: with literally thousands of aircraft operating day and night, it's only inevitable that some will be seen by eyes that are somewhat less than expertly trained and, worse, less than sober. As the old saying goes: any aircraft you don't recognize is by definition unidentified, and thus can be classified as an Unidentified Flying Object.

Also bear in mind that in the case of the B-2 Stealth Bomber or the SR-71, though both aircraft were known to the public for quite awhile, they had been operational and globally deployed for quite a longer while. Imagine what examples of advanced technologies are being developed today, which our children will one day look upon in wonder, thinking them "new".

The key to the UFO conundrum is to understand that such technologies must be, and are, closely guarded to prevent foreign powers from ascertaining their capabilities. This is known by the military and the government as Operational Security. The best way to achieve such a thing is to completely prevent all non-essential personnel from obtaining knowledge of their development.

The world's misguided belief in the alien phenomenon is probably our nation's greatest counterintelligence asset; our most powerful and lethal weapons can be tested and perfected in total secrecy, until the time comes to unleash them on an unsuspecting enemy, as was the case when, for instance, the F-117 Stealth Fighter appeared out of utter nonexistence to decimate Iraq's military infrastructure. Sadly, even if such weapons are spotted while being developed, tested or deployed, uncounted numbers of gullible extra-terrestrial devotees can be counted on to line up and insist that it's just our "friends from above" paying us a visit. The aliens have NOT landed. Yet.

Who benefits the most from this widespread UFO hoax? There's big money in it. Entire networks are devoted to it, the public eats it up and begs for seconds. Don't be suckered by people shoveling Alien Bull at you with both hands. Think for yourself: wouldn't an alien race capable of interstellar travel have more to offer than a plane that can duck radar? Let's recite together this mantra:

"The only Aliens in America came by Planes, Trains and Automobiles... I will spend my time thinking of more productive things than Alien Drivel... Science Fiction, interesting though it is, is for entertainment purposes only... it is not to be taken seriously or made into a religion... Aliens have not landed."

Assume the lotus position and recite this mantra until you believe it completely. The truth is cold and hard, but ultimately for your own good. Afterward, if you still believe in UFOs, send us $50 and a SASE and we will send you a piece of radioactive wreckage gleaned from a crater in Arizona. And then we have land you can invest in, in Florida... and a Bridge for sale cheap...

The CIA, the U.S. Air Force, and aerospace companies like Lockheed Martin have all used Area 51 as a staging ground for test flights of experimental aircraft.
Area 51 has become the popular name of this highly classified facility, which is also known as Homey Airport or Groom Lake, after the salt flat situated next to its airfield.
The F-117 Nighthawk stealth fighter made its maiden flight at Area 51.
Area 51 is located near State Route 375 in south central Nevada. So many travelers reported UFO sightings and other strange activity along SR 375 over the years that the state government officially designated the route as Extraterrestrial Highway in 1996.
News of the highway's renaming reached Twentieth Century Fox, which used the opportunity to promote the release of the film Independence Day. Nevada's tourism commission launched "The ET Experience", which offered tourists a traveler's kit with information about the highway, nearby cultural attractions, and area services.

"Storm Area 51, They Can't Stop All of Us", was a Facebook event that took place on September 20, 2019, at Area 51. The event's creator, Matty Roberts, claimed it was purely comedic.
Alien enthusiasts staged this mock stampede toward the back gate of Area 51 on September 20, 2019.
"Storm Area 51" featured the Alien Research Center on Extraterrestrial Highway, which served as basecamp for believers as prominent ufologists, speakers, musicians and artists gathered to expound upon and celebrate the mysteries of the universe.
Local officials estimated that about 1,500 people gathered at the "Storm Area 51" festival sites — and another 150 people trekked many additional miles on dirt roads to get within selfie distance of the gates.
One sociologist who studies pop culture said the festivities were "a perfect blend of interest in aliens and the supernatural, government conspiracies, and the desire to know what we don't know."
"Storm Area 51" spawned festivals in the tiny Nevada towns of Rachel and Hiko, nearest the military site.

Myths and hypotheses about Area 51 have long abounded, thanks to the intense secrecy enveloping it. Some claim it is home to aliens, underground tunnel systems, and nuclear facilities. Others believe that the lunar landing itself was filmed there. The prevalence of these rumors stems from the fact that no credible insider has ever divulged the truth about his time inside the base. Until now.

Author Annie Jacobsen had exclusive access to nineteen men who served the base proudly and secretly for decades and are now aged 75-92, and unprecedented access to fifty-five additional military and intelligence personnel, scientists, pilots, and engineers linked to the secret base, thirty-two of whom lived and worked there for extended periods. In Area 51, Jacobsen shows us what has really gone on in the Nevada desert, from testing nuclear weapons to building super-secret, supersonic jets to pursuing the War on Terror.

Unlike many aspects of other conspiracy theories, Area 51 is a well-documented fact. UFO seekers can theorize to their hearts' content about what might have gone on there, but Area 51 is quite real.

In simple terms, it is a place where the United States government conducted — and continues to conduct — tests, in a remote environment where civilians are not in jeopardy and enemies from foreign countries cannot observe or sabotage weaponry or strategy the US might use against them. Assuming that other countries were doing the same, the US also used this remote site to test equipment like the U-2 that would make it possible to spy on other countries and to prevent other countries from doing harm to the United States.

A revealing look at the secrets behind the most controversial U.S. Air Force base.

It’s no secret that, roughly 100 miles north northwest of Las Vegas, in the middle of a remote dessert, sits an extension of the Edwards Air Force facility commonly known as Area 51, but its clandestine purpose and operations remain shrouded in secrecy. It’s a highly classified, restricted area, but, cloaked in conspiracy theories, its history and true function remain a mystery. Is it only devoted to flight testing experimental aircraft and building black ops weapons systems as some contend? Or is it home to a dead alien, crashed UFOs, and extraterrestrial technology…? Or all of the above?

Few things in American history are as controversial as Roswell. The one undeniable fact is that something happened near Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947, but beyond that, the facts become murky as memories and evidence lose their luster over the years.

Unlike many aspects of other conspiracy theories, Area 51 is a frequently-documented fact. UFO seekers can theorize to their heart’s content about what might have gone on there or whether Area 51 even exists, but Area 51 is quite real.

Roswell & Area 51: The History and Mystery of the Two Most Famous UFO Conspiracy Sites in America looks at the places that have been an endless source of conspiracies for decades. Along with pictures of important people, places, and events.

A woman named Charlene Yazzle photographed this huge, saucer shaped object under a tarpaulin as it was being shipped toward a U.S. air base. ‘ET came home,’ said one Facebook commenter. ‘UFO!,’ said another. Others more boringly suggest it’s probably an aircraft. It’s worth noting that even if the government was in possession of a UFO, it would probably be transported more discreetly than this. Or is someone trying to hide something in plain sight?
Since Area 51 is, among other things, a wildlife preserve, warning devices which are not easily triggered by passing animals have been implanted in the soil.
