What is so special about Area 51?

Question

I have heard of Area 51 in Nevada but know nothing about it. What exactly is so special about it?

Answer 1

its a secretive airforce base in the nevada desert. people think aliens from the 1947 roswell, new mexico crash of a UFO were brought there, but the government says it was an experimental aircraft that crashed and not a UFO. i think it really was an experimental aircraft tho... but its possible it was a UFO

Answer 2

Area 51 is a remote tract of land in the southwestern portion of southern Nevada in the western United States. Situated at its center, on the southern shore of Groom Lake, a dry lakebed (salt lake), is a large military airfield, one of the most secretive places in the world. The base's primary purpose is to support development and testing of experimental aircraft and weapons systems.[1][2]

In my words it's a very secret military installation.

Answer 3

first AREA 51 IS IN NEW MEXICO !!!

people say we keep aliens there and sh*t like that

Area 51 was just a US airbase like anyother

we did have some exsperimental planes flying down there tho

thats were the idea for the b2 spirit come from (a n**i plan we took after WWII) called flying wing bc the B2 is basicly one big wing

Answer 4

Area 51 is a place where aliens invade!  

Answer 5

Well there has been quite a bit of alien sightings there thats the main reason other than that I have no clue. If you want to know more just look it up on the internet I'm sure you'll find something.

Answer 6

It is a closed off area only for the government. If people are found on it, they are allowed to be shot, no questions asked. It is strictly off limits, and there are rumorsa about alien testing and such going on there.

Answer 7

It's supposedly where they keep top secret information etc about aliens. The government is one huge conspiracy anyways, so who cares?

Answer 8

supposedly thats where the US government keeps the aliens and ufo's that have crashed here and lies to the public. thats not true. even if their were some kind of alien ship they wouldnt take it to are 51 because of its reputation with aliens.

I have heard from soldiers that were at area 51, that there are strange under ground sounds, but the happen periodically, so like its artificial sounds to throw people off.

in reality its nothing special, just anther base

Answer 9

They dont really reveal everything about it. Its a military base

Answer 10

First off is the name, it's only known as "Area 51" to conspiracy theorists and the news.  It's official name is R-4811 or Groom Lake.

It's a test base for evaluating new technologies.  The remoteness prevents foreign intelligence services from getting intel on what programs the USAF (and other services, which use it) are working; and just as important what they AREN"T working on.

The F117, SR71, U2 and B2 had some of their testing done there.  Currently, informed speculation is that counter-stealth and UAV/UCAV research is high on the priority list.

I'm not even going to waste my time about the conspiracy theories...

Answer 11

h**l I'm not sure myself. Supposibly it has all the little things or rather big things the government and military hide from us. Basically the motherland of conspiracies. = ]
