Yes. It is where the government tests top secret projects. However, I have heard rumors that since everyone is so aware of area 51, they have been doing testing in other less known places.

Background Information The Groom Lake Base is this top-secret military base located 90 miles north of Las Vegas (which is in Nevada). It's in grid number 51 of the Nevada Test Site, so it's called Area 51. The United States Air Force Flight Test Center controls the base. It's best known for testing exotic aircraft and weapons. The base was created in 1954 as a place to test the secret U-2 spyplane that was used to fly missions over the Soviet Union. Then it started to house the SR-71, A-12 and D-21 drone. The F-117A was tested there, also. In the 1980's the base increased in size, along with the runway (which increased to the present 6 miles). Then, mysterious lights began to appear, and armed guards known as the cammo dudes started patrolling the border. The government closed many viewpoints from which the Area 51 base could be seen. In 1989, a "physicist" named Bob Lazar claimed that he worked at a base south of Area 51 and also claimed that Area 51 was testing extremely advanced aircraft and UFO's they got by trading with the aliens. Since then, Area 51 has been thought to be the test center of captured UFOs because of the lights in the night sky.

Yes, Area 51 does exist. It's used to develop weapons systems and advanced flight technologies. The stealth technologies behind both the F-117 fighter and B-2 bomber were developed and tested there. I seriously doubt that Area 51 is harboring extraterrestrial spacecraft or alien corpses, though. I also think that the government maintains a mis-information campaign about places like this and events like the Roswell incident. As long as people are willing to believe that flying saucers are being reverse-engineered at places like Area 51, the feds figure that the public is less likely to speculate about what's really going on there.

Yes, i do believe so. But today there isnt much going on. In the early 90's ive heard there was certain studies being done about aircrafts and hazardous chemiclas. So many ppl found out area 51 existed, that they are doing new studies in more descreets parts of the country.

Area 51 has been acknowledged by the government, after many years. I think the base is primarily for research into new aircraft and weapons. There might be some energy research going on also.

Area's on a map, are just locators, so yes, in fact area 51 does indeed exist. If you are speaking of the "Groom Lake" complex, also known as "Dream land". It seems pretty likely that the Air Force is conducting experiments with so called "Black Projects". Nothing sinister, no LGM, just keeping it quiet in the interest of national security.

Certainly Area 51 exists, in the sense that there is a geographical description of a portion of ground with specific boundaries which we can define as "Area 51", and be exact and exclusive in that.

There is nothing "going on" there in the same sense that there is nothing going on in my yard--------Nothing out of the ordinary or at all unusual.

Yes, it does exist. As far as what goes on there is anybodies guess. No one gets in our out without proper clearance, and those with clearance aren't at liberty to discuss what actually takes place there. No one has ever successfully infiltrated area 51, and no one that has first hand knowledge of what takes place there has ever spoken about it publicly. Security within area 51 has no idea what happens on the inside. Security at level one is instructed to detain any persons breaching the perimeter. Security at level two are authorized to shoot-to-kill any unauthorized personnel without warning. If you want to know any more than that, you’ll have to sneak in and find out for yourself… just let us know who your next of kin are so we can notify them.

Area 51 (currently known as Air Force Flight Test Center, Detachment 3 and also known as Dreamland, Watertown Strip, Paradise Ranch, The Box, Groom Lake) is a remote tract of land in southern Nevada, owned by the United States Air Force, containing an airfield whose primary purpose is the secret development and testing of new military aircraft. It is famed as the subject of many UFO conspiracy theories.


Its secretive nature and undoubted connection to classified aircraft research, together with reports of unusual phenomena, have led Area 51 to become a centerpiece of modern UFO and conspiracy theory. Some of the unconventional activities claimed to be underway at Area 51 include:

The storage, examination, and reverse engineering of crashed alien spacecraft (including material supposedly recovered at Roswell), the study of their occupants (living and dead), and the manufacture of aircraft based on alien technology.
Meetings or joint undertakings with extraterrestrials.
The development of exotic energy weapons (for SDI applications or otherwise) or means of weather control.
The development of time travel technology.
Activities related to a supposed shadowy one world government.
Many of the theories concern underground facilities at Groom or at nearby Papoose Lake, and include claims of a transcontinental underground railroad system, a disappearing airstrip (nicknamed the "Cheshire Airstrip", after Lewis Carroll's Cheshire cat) which briefly appears when water is sprayed onto its camouflaged asphalt [10], and engineering based on alien technology. In 1989, Bob Lazar claimed that he had worked at a facility at Papoose Lake (which he called S-4) on such a U.S. Government flying saucer.

One major theory is that Area 51 is a place which simulates the environment of the moon. In 2000-2001, Fox Television broadcast a show about Apollo moon landing hoax accusations, in which it was suggested that the whole moon landing in 1969 was a hoax and was filmed in parts of Area 51.


A screenshot of Victor's alien interrogation video.Others, however, claim that during the mid 1990s, the most secret work previously done at Groom was quietly moved to other facilities, including Dugway Proving Ground in Utah, and that the continued secrecy around Groom is largely a successful attempt at misdirection[11].

In July 1996, a man named Victor came forward and said on Art Bell's Coast to Coast AM radio show that he had a videotape of an alien interrogation. He said that he copied the tape and smuggled the copy out of Area 51. The video showed the head of an alien in a dark room, possibly using telepathy to communicate with military personnel and scientists[12] and was eventually included in a documentary entitled Area 51: The Alien Interview.
