Area 51 what is there. For everyone and about everything. A base you can't get to
In the desert, not far from the bright and vicious Las Vegas, one of the most intriguing military bases in the world is hidden by dust storms.
Area 51 has always remained a philosopher's stone for every conspiracy theorist. So many books, studies, and feature films have been created about this place that they should be given a separate genre.
The very existence of Area 51 was denied by the US government until 2013. According to official speakers, there are no buildings on this site that belong to Uncle Sam. More precisely, it wasn’t. The Freedom of Information Act forced officials to admit the existence of a top-secret test site. True, according to the military, there are no aliens here at all: only test benches for the weapons being tested.
The base really exists
2013 became a landmark year for all conspirators around the world. The government of the United States of America has officially recognized the existence of the so-called “Area 51”. True, official sources never presented any shocking photographs of aliens, yetis and other infernal creatures. It was stated that they were just testing some new weapons here. Of course, no one believed the government.Official Projects of Area 51
Also in 2013, the US Senate showed the honest taxpayers of the country where exactly their money was spent. Three projects created during the Cold War and one modern development were demonstrated. All three studies involved the air force. This explained the closure of the airspace above the zone for civil aviation flights. Journalists became aware of the names of three programs: U-2, OXCART and Have Blue/F-117. Each of them designates top-secret aircraft designed for targeted attacks on strategically important enemy targets.
In addition, information about the existence of the SR-91 Aurora reconnaissance aircraft was indirectly confirmed. It is assumed that this aircraft is capable of suborbital flights. It is also associated with the recently popular stories about the mysterious “Black Triangles”, allegedly repeatedly spotted over the territory of the base.
Roswell incident
In July 1947, the entire population of the small town of Roswell woke up famous. A mysterious flying object crashed not far from the settlement and was immediately seized by the country's security services. For the next thirty years, no one remembered the incident - the CIA worked so quickly. Then, in 1978, an interview with one of the direct participants in the operation, Major Jesse Marcel, was published. He directly stated that his group was responsible for the transportation and safety of both the crashed UFO and its alien pilot. The story of Marseille is still considered by ufologists to be direct evidence of the existence of extraterrestrial life forms - despite all the assurances of the FBI that the cause of the “Roswell Incident” was a very ordinary weather balloon.
Research by Annie Jacobsen
The book by the famous journalist Annie Jacobsen, “Area 51: The Uncensored Story of America’s Top-Secret Military Base,” published in 2011, put forward new, even crazier theories about the secret base. The girl collected interviews with 74 witnesses - almost half of the respondents served at one time at the base itself. Most of the book contains only information confirmed by the US Senate about supersonic aircraft projects. Each of the reliable sources describes exactly this data. Having established a certain level of trust in the reader, supported by an abundance of official documents, Jacobsen moves on to the second part of the book.
Aliens of Joseph Stalin
In the second part, Annie Jacobsen declares without a shadow of a doubt that there was no alien invasion. And there were, simply, ordinary Soviet people sent by Joseph Stalin in order to intimidate the United States. The journalist writes that Stalin was so interested in the famous story of the recitation of the “War of the Worlds” on radio in America, which caused real panic among the population, that he decided to repeat the experiment.
“Bodies were found inside the crashed aircraft. These were not aliens or ordinary pilots, but people who were used as guinea pigs. Unusually small for pilots, they looked like children. Each of them was under five feet."
On his orders, a reconnaissance aircraft of an unusual shape was sent to the territory of a potential enemy. His team consisted of children mutilated by doctors: hence the archetypal image of aliens with huge heads and inhuman eyes. The Nazi doctor Joseph Mengele, allegedly rescued from Germany on the orders of Stalin, worked on the creation of these creatures. Despite the fact that the whole story is sewn with the purest threads, Jacobsen’s book is a great success in the United States, and the theory she puts forward is considered one of the most reliable.
Zone 51- a particularly secret territory about which the most incredible rumors are circulating. This is Edwards Air Force Base, which is located in the United States, in the south of Nevada, 133 km northwest of Las Vegas.
Millions of people know about the existence of this territory, but only a few know about its true purpose. The human race has actually achieved a lot in the field of science, but it must be admitted that in recent decades there have been a suspiciously large number of great advances in technology. Every year, as if out of nowhere, new technologies appear that change our lives.
The American government deliberately hides information about Area 51 and what is really happening there. According to some ufologists and scientists, the American government not only monitors alien creatures, but also actively interacts with them. In the late 90s, former Area 51 employee Scott Rain made a statement on television that there were aliens in one of the hangars.
One of the most fascinating and plausible theories about Area 51 involves aliens. American scientist Boyd Bushman made a sensational statement before his death, he spoke about area 51 and what happened there. He admitted that he personally met with aliens. The scientist recorded his confession on video in 2014, which you will see below.
The aliens told Bushman about their home planet Quintonia, which is located 68 light years from Earth, and it only takes them 45 minutes to get to our planets. The presence of such super-powerful technologies among the aliens speaks only of one thing - technologically, they are hundreds of times superior to us, moreover, when communicating they use telepathy, not words.
Boyd Bushman even asked his alien friends to take pictures of the planets Jupiter, Saturn and Mars as they returned to Earth.
Video: Confession of Boyd Bushman
A person is always attracted to the unknown and secret - such is our nature, and anything that has at least a slight touch of mystery is valued much more than what is available to everyone. Magicians, psychics, mysterious crimes and state secrets - all this attracts attention and is in high demand. Well, what is in demand is in short supply and is sold profitably by enterprising businessmen. However, the topic of aliens from outer space can rightfully be considered the “leader” in terms of speculation. Books, films and computer games are published and sold in huge quantities, and interest does not wane over the years, but only intensifies, as maniacs from among ufologists do their best to fuel the public’s interest in brothers in mind. Well, wise scientists can neither refute nor confirm the fact of their existence. So earthlings live in blissful ignorance... Why in “happy”? Yes, because the collapse of a myth only brings disappointment, and confirmation transfers it from the category of legends to the category of realities, and the fairy tale loses its charm...
However, today we will talk about only one of the ufological wonders, namely Area 51 (“Area 51”).
The map shows Bald Mountain, the highest point of the Groom mountain range. To the southwest (at 19 o'clock) approximately 20 km is the dry salt lake Groom lake. Las Vegas is located 150 km southeast (at 17 o'clock). Area 51 is an uninhabited piece of land in southern Nevada, located near the dry salt lake Groom lake. The military complex near Groom Lake has been given many names since its construction (Dreamland, McCartan's County, Paradise Ranch, Home Base, Watertown Strip, Groom Lake, The Box, Neverland). One of the former base employees, Kelly Johnson, calls this place "Paradise Ranch", while his colleagues - a group of testers called the base simply "Rancho". Also, the base formally had the generally accepted name Watertown Strip, which means Watertown runway. The mention of the city of Watertown is due to the fact that in this The future director of the CIA, Alan Dulles, was born in a town in New York State.
Google Photo "Area 51" In June 1958, the base was officially designated Area 51 by the Atomic Energy Commission. In the mid-70s, “Dreamland” actually became the semi-official name, thanks to the production of new exotic aerospace projects such as Have Blue and Tacit Blue (the word Blue in these names, and indeed in the military lexicon in general, means aliens, same as Grays). Testing of these latest stealth projects was carried out under extreme security and secrecy conditions. In the early 1980s, the base's official name was changed to Air Force Flight Test Center, Detachment 3, or AFFTC Det. 3, but the old name, Area 51, remained in use. , and is now often used to refer to a military installation.
This photo of Area 51 with a resolution of 2 m was taken on June 29, 2009 by the GeoEye-1 satellite It is home to the Nellis Training and Test Range, jointly owned by the Department of Defense and the US Air Force.
"Area 51" contains an airstrip whose purpose is to research and analyze enemy aircraft and weapons systems, and secretly develop new military aircraft.
The main road (Groom Road) leading to the main entrance to the base. View from Highway 375 The main road (Groom Lake Road) starts from Highway 375 (between mile markers 34 and 35) and runs west through the desert to Area 51 for about 13.8 miles.
This is a fairly good dirt road suitable for all types of cars.
Here it is, America not frightened by the Gulags! An inquisitive “tourist” found a seismic sensor and decided to examine it. Ignoring the inscription "U.S. Government Property" (property of the US government). Seismic sensors are secretly installed along the road, which warn the security service in advance about an approaching vehicle. And, of course, visitors are monitored using the surveillance system installed on Bald Mountain, as well as Cammo Dudes patrols.
Bald Mountain is the highest point of the Groom mountain range. In addition to being an ideal location for radar and communications antennas, a CCTV camera is located here. In the first two photos, taken several minutes apart, you can see how the camera turns. On the third it is marked. "Big Brother" is keeping an eye on uninvited guests.... The boundaries of the base are clearly marked, but generally do not have any obvious fencing or fencing:
The entire length of the border is patrolled by special anonymous security units of the private security structure EG and G (Edgerton, Germeshausen and Grier) Technical Services, Inc.,
Including both ground infantry (Cammo Dudes) and Sikorsky MH-60G Pave Hawk helicopters.
Cammo Dudes are equipped with high-tech equipment for careful surveillance of the territory,
And in the peripheral part of the zone there are many camouflaged surveillance cameras,
Motion detectors
A block of passive infrared sensors included in the Mini Intrusion Detection Systems (MIDS), created by Qual-Tron, Inc. and thermal radiation, laser alarm.
Cammo Dudes ground patrols travel primarily in white Jeep Cherokees, champagne gold Ford F-150s or Chevy 2500 pickups.
During the daytime, as a rule, patrols are located on the hills.
At night, Cammo Dudes patrol cars are found on Highway 375 between Rachel and the main road to the base (Groom Lake Road). In addition, all dirt roads leading directly to the base (Groom Lake Road, Mailbox Road or North Gate (Rachel Back Gate) are also heavily patrolled by cars, often with their headlights off, using night vision devices.
Remote points on the Area 51 perimeter are patrolled from the air by MH-60G Pave Hawk helicopters, a modification of the Army Sikorsky UH-60A Black Hawk helicopter. The main difference between the MH-60G Pave Hawk and the base model: an enlarged gas tank, which allows increasing the range of the helicopter from 600 to 900 km, as well as an in-flight refueling system, with the use of which the range is unlimited.
The refueling system boom is often mistakenly confused with a “big gun” against uninvited guests of the zone. In fact, the three security helicopters are armed with two 7.62 mm Minigun M134 machine guns. But, as a rule, curious tourists are subjected to “sandblasting” - a raised air flow from a helicopter hovering at low altitude, with sand. This was often used in the early 90s, but nowadays this illegal operation is used extremely rarely, exclusively against too annoying “tourists” and in places difficult to reach for ground patrols.
The guards have no official authority outside the base and are required to avoid any contact with tourists and other civilians in the vicinity of the facility.
Main entrance to the base
CCTV camera not far from the main gate. Antennas pointing towards Bald Mountain However, if a person violates the boundaries of a military base for any reason, the guards will immediately detain him and, at best, send him to the state sheriff (Lincoln County Sheriff) for arrest. As a prescribed punishment, the violator can be charged a minimum fine for entering a protected area in the amount of $1000, or given six months in custody, or face both. Also, specialized security has permission to use weapons against violators, although according to official data, such situations have not occurred.
Rear gate. They can be reached by the road that you meet first when you leave Rachael towards Highway 93. The coordinates of the intersection are N37 38 03.7 W115 43 11.0.
The rear gate security system is equipped with various technical means, including video cameras. Inside Area 51, security is provided by Air Force Military Police.
Every weekday morning, a group of approximately five hundred people goes to a protected area,
Located on the northwest side of McCarran Airport in Las Vegas. They board small, unmarked Boeing 737-200 aircraft with the prefix "Janet".
Boeings take off every half hour and head north, carrying passengers and cargo to the Tonopah test airfield and ... to Area 51.
In addition to the Boeing-737-200, Janet Airlines uses 19-seat Beechliners The terminal is well guarded, and no one was able to photograph anything particularly interesting.
"Area 51" is a fairly large (35 by 40 kilometers) area around Groom Lake. Mysterious construction work under the salt dry lake bed of Groom began in 1951. All airfield personnel, including doctors, were unexpectedly withdrawn from the base, and their place was taken by military construction workers for six months. Air Force Colonel Wendell Stevens, already out of work, said: “Work on the construction of underground facilities began in the summer. Part of the existing runway was dismantled and moved underground. After the work was completed, the object was accepted by people in civilian clothes. The ground runway was then rebuilt to make everything look the same.”
Panorama of Area 51 In the 50s, this place was chosen by the Lockheed Martin Corporation aircraft concern to test its top-secret brainchild - the U-2 spy plane. The place could not have been better suited for such work: a lifeless “lunar” landscape at an altitude of 1500 meters, an absolutely smooth five-kilometer bed of a dried-up lake, cut off from the outside world by high (up to 2700 meters) mountain ranges. Civil aircraft flights are prohibited due to nuclear tests being carried out in the area, the complete absence of local population is an ideal place to keep secrets.
During the day there is not much traffic in Area 51, but as soon as darkness falls the valley comes alive with many lights. In 1955, the U-2 spy plane pilot project was completed at Groom Lake. From that moment on, Area 51 was constantly modernized and expanded. By 1980, 180 above-ground buildings and structures had already been erected on the base, the main one having 14 underground floors.
After the successful launch of the project, from March 1956 to June 1957, regular training flights of new aircraft piloted by US CIA employees took place at the air base. The U-2s were then transferred to Edwards Air Force Base, and Area 51 became a ghost town. However, after 3 years, aircraft testing at Groom Lake was resumed. Lokheed's new Oxcart project (an A-12 capable of Mach-3 speeds) required increasing the runway size to 10,000 feet, building a new control tower, and placing additional refueling tanks. In addition, the number of maintenance personnel was increased to 1,000 people, and security of the airbase perimeter required the closure of a small non-DoD mine. Thus, Area 51 became a restricted zone, surrounded by barbed wire, where anyone entering its territory was considered a potential enemy.
The 70s of the 20th century were marked for Groom Lake by a new large-scale project of the American military - the Have Blue/F-117 program. The first prototype of the stealth aircraft took off from the test site in 1977, and already in 1981, the F-117 Nighthawk took off from the Watertown airfield and successfully completed a series of firing training. Subsequently, the top-secret F-117 samples were relocated to the nearby Tonopah test airfield, and then went on duty at the Holloman military base.
Beginning in 1983, when the F-117s entered service, the base continued to operate and gradually expanded.
It became increasingly difficult to hide the tests being carried out at the secret base, since Area 51 was very visible from the nearby mountains. There was only one way out - to “privatize” these mountains.
Air Force public affairs spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Cannon: "The U.S. Air Force needs this land to support new technological developments in the military industry... The influx of curious people in recent years has often led to test flights being delayed, rescheduled or even cancelled. The expansion of the territory will prevent further threat to national security. “Congress heeded the invincible logic of the military and agreed to expand the territory of the base. Since April 10, 1995, the mountains, which so worried the secret services, became the territory of Area 51.
And already in October 1995, at the highest point (9380 feet) of the Groom mountain range, on Bald Mountain, a radar and video surveillance center was installed, which perfectly monitors the Tikaboo Valley, Sand Spring Valley and Emigrant Valley) where, in fact, Area 51 is located.
Information about Area 51, leaked to the press, aroused enormous interest, and sensation lovers flocked to this God-forgotten corner of Nevada. And then they were faced with a paradoxical situation: despite official statements about the absence of any secrets, it was impossible to get into this area. Round-the-clock patrols, a carefully guarded area, written warnings, and unequivocal threats from the guards clearly indicated that something extraordinary was happening here. This aroused even more curiosity.
The public began to hope that, in accordance with the 25-year secrecy law, it would learn more about the mysterious base. But for this zone, President Clinton made an exception. On September 29, 1995, he signed a special order on its special status: “It is of vital importance to the United States that classified information about this base not become public knowledge.”
This photo shows the most remote southern part of the base. Moving from south to north (from left to right in the photograph) we can observe:
Two light buildings in the background to the left are sites for testing new engines (Engine Test Cells). Due to the noise and danger of an explosion, they were moved as far as possible from the main base. To the left are three waste disposal shafts. They have not changed much since 1995 and it is not entirely clear whether they are still in use or not.
To the right of the sites for testing new engines is a circular area containing an explosives warehouse. This entire circular area is surrounded by an earth bank to protect the rest of the base from explosion in the event of a possible accident.
Two runways and taxiways begin in front of this area.
Further to the right, at the base of Papoose Mountain, is a gravel pit and concrete plant that supplies the base with building materials for new construction and runway expansions. There is also a storage area for construction equipment.
This photo shows the southern part of the base Further to the right of the gravel pit is a fuel depot. Previously, during the A-12 "Oxcart" program in the early 60s, 8 large fuel tanks were installed. In 2001, most were dismantled, only 2 of the old tanks remained. But at the beginning of 2003, two even larger tanks were installed.
In front of the fuel and lubricants warehouse, communication and navigation equipment was installed to support flights.
Behind another site with equipment is the "dump" of Area 51 projects - Boneyard. Rejected projects and prototypes, such as Boeing's Bird of Prey or Northrop's Tacit Blue, end their lives here. Prototypes are stored here for years until they are declassified and transferred to a museum or dismantled.
A little to the right is a long white building - a shooting range.
Now we've reached the South Ramp and discover new additions. The South Ramp reopened after renovations in the summer of 2003, with several new buildings added. In addition, some construction equipment is still visible. In this part of the base they are preparing for new major projects. This new project is likely related to large drones: UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) - simply a UAV or UCAV (Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle) - a UAV with a combat load. The UCAV is a fairly new technology, but has proven its usefulness in Afghanistan and Iraq. The first generation UCAV, the MQ-1 Predator, is armed with two Hellfire laser-guided ATGMs. The new UCAVs are expected to be larger and carry larger payloads.
Further, in the foreground, there is a weapons depot, which, like the explosives depot, is surrounded by a protective earthen rampart. Behind the warehouse, in front of hangars 9-16, is a large new hangar, built in the spring of 2005. It is significantly taller than other hangars and can be assumed to be used for the construction of an aircraft with the ability to transport cargo on top of the fuselage. Many new high-speed aircraft, known as X-Planes, were carried to the launch point by a carrier aircraft called a Mothership. Hangars 9 through 16 were used to build the A-12 "Oxcart" and its successor, the SR-71 "Blackbird". Both aircraft were designed for reconnaissance operations at high altitude (90,000 feet) and high speed (over 3M). They were last used in the early 90s during the Gulf War. It appears that the long-abandoned hangars 9-16 have undergone renovation and will be used for new projects.
The long two-color building standing in the back is hangar 17. In front of it and slightly to the right are two double hangars 22-23 and 20-21. To their left is a warehouse serving hangars 20-23. Between them is a structure connected to hangars 20-21 and 22-23 with pipes, presumably fuel storage or a boiler room.
In front of this group of hangars, to the right of the weapons depot, is Hangar 19, used for both arming and disarming aircraft. In the spring of 2005, hangar 19 was expanded to the north and south, in both directions, with extensions. Thus, Hangar 19 was tripled in size. The purpose of the expansion is unknown, it is only known that the expansions at the bottom are open, possibly for better ventilation when starting the engines. Perhaps these extensions are made in order to hide something from observers from Tikaboo Peak. In any case, everything that happens here is top secret. To the right of Hangar 19 is a taxiway that was built in the spring of 2003 and connects the South Ramp to the new runway 14L/32R.
In the depths, on the slope of the Papoose Range, there is a group of tanks - water storage. Originally there were only four white tanks. Three huge colored tanks were added between 1995 and 1999.
Further to the right is Hangar 8, which is said to be used by Northrop Grumman. Next is fire station No. 2 (No. 1 is located near the four northern hangars). To the right is the “personal equipment” (equipment) building (P.E. Building). This is where pilots store their equipment and prepare for flights. There is parking next to the building and the only trees in Area 51.
To the right is a huge hangar 18, about 100 feet high with sliding doors at both ends. The hangar is so large that it could easily accommodate a Boeing 747. The exact purpose of the hangar is unknown: perhaps it is used in development, and perhaps in maintenance of the Janet fleet (a Boeing-737 of Janet Airlines was observed next to hangar 18). Nearby is an office and service building.
The dark brown building is the security building, the headquarters of the Cammo Dudes, who provide security to the outer perimeter of the base. The next building is known as the laboratory building, which houses the photo and measurement equipment laboratory ("Photo Lab and Precision Measurement Equipment Lab (PMEL)")
Behind these two buildings is a toxic waste disposal site. In the early 90s, waste from the production of paint used to coat the F-117 stealth aircraft was burned in open ditches at this site. After several workers fell ill and some even died, "disposal" in this way was stopped and the site was filled with soil. Because of this story, some sources mention that chemical weapons were developed at Area 51.
This photo shows the central and northern parts of the base Behind the Cammo Dudes headquarters, to the north, i.e. to the right is the terminal of Janet Airlines, which brings personnel from Las Vegas to the base. When Janet Boeing-737s are standing at the terminal, their white tails are visible from behind the hill. At night, the areas around the terminal are well lit with yellow floodlights. In front of Janet Terminal is the flight control tower, partially hidden by the Jumbled Hills.
Behind the terminal are three groups of dormitory buildings that can accommodate more than 1,000 civilian and military personnel. There are a total of 33 dormitory buildings in Area 51. Instead of having to shuttle to and from Las Vegas every day, personnel can stay on base during the work week. Obviously, there are financial incentives for this. The majority of dormitories are one-story and are poorly visible from Tikaboo.
The next building to the right, almost hidden by the Jumbled Hills, is the Test Engineering Support Center (TESC). This is nothing more than a storage facility for the intelligence database for research projects. Nearby, almost hidden by the hill, are the base technical support buildings (electricity, telephony, etc., Consolidated Services Facility), power plant, administration, headquarters and canteen As well as fire station No. 1.
Behind the indicated group of buildings there are several buildings in a fenced area, the exact purpose of which is unknown.
Further to the right is the cargo terminal, where cargo delivered by trucks arrives. In front of the cargo terminal, hangars are located in a checkerboard pattern, from which the construction of Area 51 began and in which the U-2 spy plane was developed and tested. Actually, the history of Area 51 began with the Lockheed “Skunkworks” project.
Between the old hangars, the water tower and the cargo terminal there is a recreation area: a baseball field, tennis courts, a gym, a swimming pool, and a bar called Sam's Place (possible translation: "Launch Pad" or "Rocket Position").
Further to the right is the North Ramp area, which contains hangars 4 through 7. These hangars were used in the A-12 "Oxcart" program and later housed a fleet of Soviet fighters that the US government acquired through various channels. These aircraft were examined by pilots from the Red Hats team to evaluate their capabilities. Hangars 4 to 7 are also called "Red Hats Hangars".
North of the Red Hats hangars is the parking area for three MH-60G Pave Hawk helicopters, which are used to guard the Area 51 perimeter. Behind the parking area is a building built between 1998 and the spring of 2000.
Further north are DYCOMS ("Dynamic Coherent Measurement System"), a Quick Kill radar system and various support buildings. All this is used to create stealth aircraft. The DYCOMS system's two large parabolic antennas point upward when not in use.
However, in the Emigrant Valley, northwest of Groom Lake, according to American "tourists", there are several radar sites. Upon closer examination it turns out that...
This is the Soviet radar technology that is so familiar to my heart:
Radio altimeter PRV-11
They say that "Area 51"- the most secret place on Earth. It is a US military airfield, a remote subdivision of Edwards Air Force Base.
Of course, Nevada, where else in the US is there a place where you can detonate an atomic bomb and not change the landscape? Area 51 is also called "Paradise Ranch", "Box", "Dreamland", "Dreamland" or "Groom Lake".
The secret object is hidden from prying eyes. It is known that it is located in the south of Nevada, 133 km northwest of Las Vegas, on the southern shore of the dry salt lake Groom Dry. It is impossible for uninitiated persons to enter Area 51. Of course, there are no signs along the long road to the secret facility, and there are no settlements or any buildings along it. Not far from the base you can already see cordons that are equipped with motion detectors, heat radiation and CCTV cameras.
The territory of Area 51 is illuminated by powerful floodlights at night. In addition, the training ground is also surrounded by mountains. In 1995, they were privatized to expand the territory of the secret facility, but also to prevent the possibility of infiltration of private US Air Force property.
Why does Area 51 attract ufologists?
“Area 51” announced itself as an amazing object in January 1951. Then a nuclear bomb exploded here. Subsequently, according to official data, 928 explosions were carried out at the test site. The Desert Rock Army scientist who commanded the operation at the time ensured that troops were several miles from the epicenter during the explosion, and he also ordered a detachment of infantry to be sent directly under the mushroom in order to determine the effects of radiation.
Until 1955, this zone was part of the US Navy testing ground, they were engaged in underground nuclear testing, as well as testing the latest models of the aviation industry.
Then a rumor began to spread actively that Area 51 was keeping the secret of a secret US government project called “Red Light.” This military project was testing a flying saucer that crashed in this place and was restored. Eyewitnesses say that they often see UFOs. Many scientists and ufologists claim that Area 51 contains aircraft debris and alien bodies.
The secret base consists of 15 levels, which are located underground. It is assumed that scientific research and testing of ultra-modern aircraft are being conducted there, which are supposedly created together with aliens. Thus, ufologists believe that Americans are using extraterrestrial technology. Numerous witnesses who saw aerobatic maneuvers and perfect maneuvers say that such capabilities are not available for earth-based equipment.
Area 51 is sending UFO signals. Numerous eyewitnesses, as well as statements from former employees of the secret facility, fully confirm the fact that something wrong is happening in Area 51. One of the employees, Oliver Mason, told how in 1994 a sparkling ball hovered in the air and then disappeared with great speed. It was illuminated by a powerful beam of light from the Earth. And in 1997, residents of the town of Austin could observe several unnaturally bright flying objects. The objects crossed the Nevada desert from north to south.
The Heavy Burden of the Initiates - Area 51
. Everything secret, as we know, always becomes clear. The activities that take place in the hangars of Area 51 are no exception. Bob Lazar told the whole world about a secret ufological laboratory in the Nevada desert. According to him, he was prompted to do this by circumstances that threatened his life. Bob's friends and his wife were very interested in what the former Area 51 employee did at work. Therefore, Bob Lazar took his friends and wife to Area 51 for three nights in a row. Then those who came “on an excursion” were noticed. Lazar experienced threats of physical and mental harm, shooting at a car, and, as a result, dismissal. Therefore, Bob Lazar chose a way out of this situation - to tell about the secrets of Area 51.
Bob told how in 1988 he worked on a secret project that studied the issue of UFO engines, as well as changes in the gravitational field around the UFO. This project was supposedly started together with aliens in 1979. Then a conflict occurred and 44 people were killed. The aliens also killed a specially trained scientist, so the Americans were forced to continue the study on their own.
US authorities declared Bob Lazar insane, and all documents that confirmed the existence of such a program were destroyed. And the reality of the facts was confirmed only by Lazar’s old office phone number, which was found in an old directory.
Despite the fact that Area 51 is now considered a defunct site and the cessation of all activities here has been officially announced, it still remains an unsolved mystery of our time. And the question that if there was no ufological zone, then why every day the plane delivered 1,500 workers to Area 51, and took them back in the evening, remains unanswered.
We can only hope that Area 51 will soon reveal all its secrets!
Area 51 is often the subject of various conspiracy theories. in works of popular culture . The most famous works in the plot of which she plays a significant role: the films “Hangar 18”, “Independence Day”, “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull”, “Gender: The Secret Material”; TV series “Stargate”, “Doctor Who” “The X-Files”; cartoon Ninja Turtles; video games Area 51, Fallout of Nevada, Tomb Raider 3, Mercedes-Benz World Racing, Microsoft Flight Simulator X, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Deus Ex, World of Warcraft and UFO: Aftermath. Also in the video game Call of Duty: Black Ops there is a multiplayer map of the same name. In the literary project Ethnogenesis there are books “Armageddon-2” (with the subtitle of the same name) and “Armageddon-3”, the action of which takes place here. References to it exist in many other works.
Area 51, located in southern Nevada, has long been the subject of worldwide discussion and controversy.
Area 51 is a highly classified US military base. According to satellite data, the base has its own airfield and many buildings, but all important developments and research are carried out by scientists exclusively in underground laboratories.
According to official statements, aircraft and the latest US weapons are tested here. Innovations are kept strictly secret under the close supervision of the state.
- from the evil eye.
Photos that occasionally leak from Area 51 onto the World Wide Web excite the public and raise a lot of questions. Some believe that the amazing pictures are fake. Others say that the photos were obtained by hackers and the CIA will do anything to convince people that they are fictitious.
Initially, the American government generally rejected the existence of this base, and only after photographs from Soviet spy satellites did the Pentagon reluctantly admit the guesses of other countries. With the advent of Area 51, flights over this territory became available only to the US Air Force. And when approaching third-party ground transport, patrol officers are asked to turn around forcibly.
In the area in which the secret base is located, there has always been activity of unidentified flying objects. According to rumors, several UFOs were even shot down, but all official statements refute such information. Testimony from elderly military personnel who worked there for some time suggests the opposite. It is also strange that accidents often happen to eyewitnesses who are too talkative...
Area 51 appeared in 1955, and already in 1958, US authorities cordoned off 38 thousand hectares of land. In 1984, the protected perimeter of the territory was doubled. What they are really doing and studying at this secret base remains a great mystery.
