Do u really think AREA 51 is a hidden UFO base?

Our governement has definately recovered at least three flying saucers. UFO means Unidentified Flying Object, so just about any air-base that runs night operations is a UFO base. A bug can be a UFO, a cloud can be a UFO, if it flies and you cant identify it, its a UFO. Area 51 did house some really interesting 'out of this world' stuff at one time, but it is not known to me if it still does or even if it housed the 'stuff' for long. Area 51 is the focal-point of alot of flying saucer mythology because of an event or two that transpired there many decades ago. Our government knows about this weird stuff, to some degree or another, but will NEVER come clean on it, so dont ever involve them in anything if you find something very interesting. They would just 'clean up the mess' and you would probably get 'rubbed' in the process. The truth, as far as ive been able to piece together, is that the flying saucers and those who pilot them are coming not from outer space, but from within the Earth. Im not talking some Hollow Planet, Inner Sun gibberish here, but it is pretty kooky, none the less. There is at least one civilization of beings who reside in gigantic caverns and networks deep beneath the crust of our planet, possibly near or at where continental shelves pull apart or meet but dont touch together everywhere, or something. I think they, the real 'they', are the decendants of human-sized, intelligent, bipedal dinosaurs who got trapped in caves and found places that harbor life deep in the earth. They eventually developed scientific stuff including genetic manipulation and created the hairy dwarves, 'bigfoot', and 'grey aliens' that are sometimes reported seen. They may have had something to do with our own development. That would help explain why their mind tricks are so effective on us. A random process that developed on a completely alien planet would probably not be as strong as their mind tricks are when used on us.

UFO means "Unidentified Flying Object", right?\n\nBut Area 51 is on the ground.  If the objects were at Area 51, they would not be flying.  So they would not be flying objects.  Therefore, it would be a misnomer to call them Unidentified FLYING Objects.  So, in reality, the possibility of UFOs at Area 51 does not exist.\n\nDespite the fact there are no UFOs there, there is a web page at the Wikipedia documenting what is known about Area 51.  Also, it recounts a lot of fiction about the US government site - as well as some interesting trivia.\n\nI have included the link, so that you don't go away completely empty-handed.

it's area 51, i believe that you mean, and if there are any satellite pictures i assure you the government would not let them get out, or if they did, they wouldn't show anything of value

It's not, at least not any more.\n\nOriginally a top secret site where futuristic planes such  as the U2 Spyplane and the B2 Stealth Bomber were first tested it has since become a "defunct" base, kept alive on a care and maintenance basis only.\n\nThis has been largely due to the publicity it received as the USA's top "Black Ops" test site during the 60's an early 70's.\n\nAlthough any new "planes" are now tested at the Andrew's Air Force Base, people are still spell-bound at the thought of Area-51 and many false rumors exist about "crashed UFO's being housed there".\n\nThe reality is that there are more civilians working there now than military staff - hardly something that would be done at a top secret military site.\n\nIn addition, you can now buy extremely high quality satellite photographs of the base courtesy of the Russian military, who sold many of the pictures to budding entrepreneurs looking to make a quick buck by selling them to "UFO hunters".

"...From my own intelligence work within the military, I can say WITH ALL CERTAINTY that one of the main reasons the public has been kept in total darkness about the reality of UFOs and 'aliens', is that the truth of the matter actually exists TOO CLOSE TO HOME TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT.  How could a spokesman for the Pentagon dare admit that five or ten thousand feet underground EXISTS AN ENTIRE WORLD THAT IS 'FOREIGN' TO A BELIEF STRUCTURE WE HAVE HAD FOR CENTURIES? How could, for example, our fastest bomber be any challenge to those aerial invaders when we can only guess about the routes they take to the surface; eluding radar as they fly so low, headed back to their underground lair?"\n\n"...the 'Greys' or the 'EBEs' have established a fortress, spreading out to other parts of the U.S. via means of a vast underground tunnel system THAT HAS VIRTUALLY EXISTED BEFORE RECORDED HISTORY..."\n\n--Milton (William) Cooper, ex-Naval Intelligence officer

yes, UFOss are real. the military of several other countries have come out and said they exist.  i dont know if the US gov had any encounters. But, i believe world govs do cover it up. if it comes out that they exist it would dissapprove many of the beliefs that make up  our world's societies. for example; religion.

If they are, then I don't think it's right.  But I think most of the UFO phenomenon is a ruse by the government to keep the conspiracy people focused on that rather than other more important and real situations.  It keeps them occupied.\n\nIt's the 21st century.  Most people own digital cameras and video recorders of amazing quality.  Yet still nobody can get a clear, verifiable image of all these UFOs?  I find it hard to believe that the people, without the government, can't prove the existence of UFOs.  Why not?  The things supposedly fly around in the open sky.

Some are definitely fake but hold on....\n\nThere are are far too many reports from very credible people to dismiss all UFO's as fake.  I haven't seen one myself but some close friends and relatives have seen things that they've described to me that defy the abilities of any aircraft known to man.  \n\nSo, the jury is still out with the general public.  I believe that people at the highest levels of our government and military know exactly what this is all about but they are not telling us.   \n\nKeep watching the skys!

If there was an alien at Area 51 it would have leaked by now, I think.\n\nArea 51 is an airfield.  It is likely that the Air Force tests secret aircraft there.\n\nIf aliens had crash landed on earth why aren't there more of them?  They would likey want to do one of several things:\n\n1. If they were trying not to be noticed, they would come and collect the technology that their hapless brothers left in the wreckage\n\n2. If they were trying not to be noticed they would collect the bodies of said brothers\n\n3.  If they were concerned that thier brothers might be hurt, they would come and rescue them.\n\n4. If this was only a scout ship (why wouldn't they use a robotic scout?) then they would have been curious as to what happened and sent another expidition to find out.\n\nSo where are they?  If they accepted the loss of thier brother (or sister) in the ship, then we may never hear from them.\n\nAnyway, I don't believe that there is an alien living at Area 51.\n\nIf there were, it would likely be less dangerous than a Human.  Look at how we treat each other and then ask yourself, can a race that is constantly wiping each other out ever create the technology needed to make the long and dangerous trip between star systems?

I think that it is essentially a "defunct" military site in terms of high-tech weapons.\n\nStill draws the crowds who are looking for the latest US warplanes like Aurora, but they are now tested at the Andrew's Airforce Base.\n\nRemember - the truth might be out there, but it is no longer found at Area 51.

Yes, and aliens and flying saucers, etc.  I find these unexplained phenomenon very interesting.  I listen to Coast to Coast radio.  They discuss the paranormal on this talk show.....)(

For a realistic answer, it must be a  resounding no.  The probability of keeping something that fundamentally society changing hidden from the world is extremely small.  To many people involved.  Even during the height of secrecy, there were thousands of workers in and out of facilities there.  None of them have credible stories of aliens.  \n\nOf course, this assumes you don't believe in the NSA's mind control satellite...

My gues would be that the government is using the faacility for flight testing of next-generation manned and unmanned aircraft, as well as other flight-related research.\n\nHowever, the *really* super-secret stuff (whatever you believe it to be) is being conducted elsewhere. The government allows everyone to think that something shady is going on in Area 51, so as to keep their attention focused on it, while the really juicy stuff is going on out in same out-of-the-way location that nobody pays any attention to.

Sure, they have a secret air force base there.\nIt is located underwater.

Because of it's remote location, it's quite possible that military testing of some sort that has the potential to harm people is or has been conducted there.\n\nIt's also possible that experimental military aircraft have been or are being tested there.\n\nWhile it's possible that some kind of space debris (either of terrestial or otherworldly origin) has been taken there, I don't think there are any bodies or spacecraft or any huge cover-ups.  I don't think that level of security could be maintained for this long a time.  SOMEBODY would have produced some kind of REAL evidence by now.\n\nBut it's such a fun fantasy to believe, and I believe our government does take advantage of the mysterious, mythical nature of the site to do real top-secret things there.  After all, what better way to hide the more mundane truth than with an elaborate and fanciful lie?

"Area 51 (also known as Dreamland, Watertown, The Ranch, Paradise Ranch, The Farm, The Box, Groom Lake, and The Directorate for Development Plans Area) is a remote tract of land in southern Nevada, owned by the federal government of the United States, containing an air field apparently used for the secret development and testing of new military aircraft. It is famed as the subject of many UFO conspiracy theories."\n\nVia Wikipedia.

This is nothing new...people have been carrying on about this place for the last 25 years...they supposedly have the bodies of the extra-terrestrials who crashed in Roswell NM back in 1947. In reality it's a secluded place where the military can play with it's new toys without the fear of prying eyes...it's a BIG base... oh and that Bob Lazar guy they mention has been discredited as a lying nut ball...he never worked there. Now that Area 51 has such a high profile, I imagine all the really secret stuff has been moved to a place that is actually still a secret.
