The Area 51 military base has been one of America’s most controversial places. Controversies ranging from unidentified flying objects (UFO’s), alien sightings to highly advanced military technology. Recently, the CIA has declassified some documents and acknowledged the existence and the development of the spy planes, but deny any UFO’s or alien sightings (or experimentations). However, there are still many people who believe in the conspiracies of UFO’s and aliens, they believe the CIA hasn’t been fully honest, and that there is much more than what they are telling.
The location of Area 51 isn’t exactly hard to find, this place can be found roughly 80 miles northwest of Las Vegas, Nevada, and even a quick search in google will give you the exact coordinates and location of the facility. However, it’s still surrounded by a high-level of security, nobody is allowed to drive, fly or walk near this area, which is the main reason why the general public is curious and suspicious of the activity at area 51. Rumors of UFO’s crash landing, alien captures and covers ups only fuel the conspiracy theories. Area 51 has become synonymous with conspiracies, UFO’s and Aliens.
Some believe that in 1947 a UFO crashed in Roswell, New Mexico. This crash is believed by many to be the reason for the creations of area 51 and has remained the front and center of all controversies since the inception of area 51, one cannot talk about area 51 without mentioning the crash in Roswell. Some local’s from Roswell claim they witnessed the removal of debris and suspect that it was a flying saucer. Adding to this suspicion, the Army Air Corps initially announce that the wreckage was that of a “flying saucer”, only to later retract their statement, and instead c...

...e hectic Area 51.
Molly Wood, CNET Executive Editor, recalls in another interview with Author Annie Jacobsen (which Jacobsen cites from an anonymous source), “that a flying disc really did crash in New Mexico,” and that it did end up in Area 51, but that it was not from Mars, but from Russia. Jacobsen’s source states that the so-called alien bodies recovered were those of human Russian pilots, not aliens, that the child-sized pilots where byproducts of the horrific “human experimentation program by Stalin, in collaboration with a doctor from Auschwitz, Dr. Joseph Mengele,” apparently the United States government chose to do the same thing, which is what gave rise to the recovered alien bodies at the Roswell crash. However, Jacobsen’s source states that the idea of the US Government conducting human experimentation would be upsetting to a lot of people. (Wood, Molly)

  • High Security Military Base: Area 51 and Aliens

    967 Words  | 2 Pages

    Located 90 miles north of Las Vegas sits a high-security military base widely known as Area 51. For decades people have had suspicions about whether or not alien life forms exist and if so, whether or not they are imprisoned at Area 51. This curiosity has been fueled by not only interest in extraterrestrials, but also reported sightings of foreign life forms not from planet Earth. The conspiracies, other life forms exist and are being kept at military base, have largely been fueled by the government’s involvement in nearly all reported sightings. Area 51 not only has discovered other forms of life from outer space but also is most likely conducting strange experiments there.

    ...ary knew about the crash and that they were going to transport the wreckage to another military base. Many eyewitness accounts with similar details eliminate the possibility of merely a single person making up the entire event. The government’s contradictory reports demonstrate that their knowledge of the incident is dynamic and dependent on how they want the people to react. This matter is important because it raises the possibility that if the government is hiding information from the public about a spacecraft accident, there may be other incidents where the government is concealing the truth from the public. Despite the government’s best attempts to cover up the Roswell incident, eyewitness accounts from the common person validate the idea that an unidentified flying object crashed in Roswell, New Mexico and eternally changed the lives of several people.

Kennedy; the death of Princess Diana; alien encounters in Roswell, New Mexico; and the idea that Elvis may still be alive.

    There is no doubt that an elaborate underground base exist below the Denver International Airport. What actually is going on down below in this base however is a mystery. When taking a closer look at this airfield it is evident that something weird is going on. “While the most extreme claim maintains that a massive underground facility exists below the airport where an alien race of reptilian humanoids feeds on missing children while awaiting the date of government-sponsored rapture” (Maher 4). This extreme claim just shows what the human mind can conceive when coincidence and the unknown meet. The research is done, is there a conspiracy or is it just being blown out of proportion.

    Reviewing the experiments five years later, one secrecy-conscious CIA auditor wrote: “Precautions must be taken not only to protect operations from exposure to enemy forces but also to conceal these activities from the American public in general. The knowledge that the agency is engaging in unethical and illicit activities would have serious repercussions in political and diplomatic circles.” Though many of the documents related to MKULTRA were destroyed by the CIA in 1972, some records relating to the program have made it into the public domain. And the work of historians, investigative reporters, and various congressional committees has resulted in the release of enough information to make MKULTRA one of the most disturbing instances of intelligence community abuse on record. As writer Mark Zepezauer puts it, “the surviving history is nasty enough.”

    Area 51 may be the most famous military base run by the US government that doesn’t officially exist as no one knows what goes on inside the base past its perimeters. Its current primary purpose is publicly unknown; however, based on historical evidence, it most likely supports the development and testing of experimental aircraft Under highly secretive conditions. The official explanation given by the military is that this is the location of a firing range used by the US Air Force. There are several theories about how Area 51 got its name, the most popular being that the facility borders the Nevada Test Site (NTS, used as testing grounds for nuclear bombs). The NTS is mapped as a grid of squares that are numbered from one to 30 (with a few

    The creation of Area 51 began in April of 1955, when a Lockheed test pilot, Tony LeVier, searched for a remote site to test the U-2. Grooms Lake is chosen as the location for the runway. By August of 1955, the U-2 makes its first flight from Grooms Lake. That was only the beginning for test flights from Area 51. In April 1962, the first A-12 Blackbird was tested at Groom Lake. February 1982, the F-117A Stealth fighter takes off for the first time. All other test flights have not been released to the public, but that doesn't mean they don't occur. However, they are, in no way, shape or form, alien test flights. Nearly all of the evidence that supports the alien spacecraft theory, is without backing, or solid information. Also, the US government played on the UFO theories to hide their own testing plans. Today, Area 51 is the home to the latest top secret aircraft: the Aurora, among others Many of these aircraft, past and present, are able to perform incredible feats in the sky. Some so unbelievable, that they could be mistaken for alien spacecraft by fanatics of extra-terrestrials. However, based on the falsified eye-witness accounts of Area 51, and declassification of military spy planes like the U-2 and F-117A Stealth fighter, I am here to tell you that these flights are not alien crafts, but actually secret military aircraft.

They have proven that often the light patterns people report being on the bottom side of the UFO matches the light patterns of certain military aircraft. Jeffrey Richelson, who works at the National Security Archives, studied declassified documents that were released in August 2013 and came to the conclusion that during the 1950’s and 1960’s the military was heavily testing the U-2 spyplane, wh...
