LAS VEGAS: was this city built in Tribute to Aliens from VEGA ?

I ask this question for a number of reasons. The first is that we know that the city of Las Vegas was built in a very unusual place in the Nevada desert, very far from any sources of water which are usually considered essential for locating an large population center. The official founder of this city was a mobster known as "Bugsy" Siegel who was said to be somewhat crazy and has been presented as a visionary. He happens to have been conveniently murdered in a Mob Hit which might have been planned not as alleged for organized crime business reasons but possibly to shut him up as he had become a liability given what he knew?

Beyond the improbable and very unusual story explaining the founding of this city, there is also what happens nearby. The most famous location for UFO sightings in the world is located only a few miles north of this city, in a place called Area 51 which is situated on a highway which due to its high incidence of sightings has been officially named "Extraterrestrial Highway". This location is so famous that there is a dedicated forum to Area 51 right here at ATS.

Las Vegas serves as a logistics center for Area 51 as evidenced by the many flights in unmarked white aircraft which ferry each morning many employees who reside in Las Vegas to their jobs at Area 51 and other nearby Black Ops or classified Top Secret programs located in military installations and/or private corporations secret projects within convenient air commute distance from this city.

The gambling vocation of this city and its relatively uncontrolled and autonomous State government and City administration, said to both be at the service of the underworld interests of the Casino owners for whom laws are made and public services are oriented, could be a practical way of funneling secret funds to any number of programs through the money laundering facilities of gambling operations. The complicity is such a program of organized crime families, as well as the direct takeover and governance over Casinos by complicit partially or wholly controlled corporations or by Intelligence operatives placed within such organizations could also assist in coordinating the financing of any number of Black Ops projects for the Military Industrial Complex which many have recently re-baptized the "Military Industrial Extraterrestrial Complex".

There is the possibility that Aliens from the star system VEGA might have interacted with US Government officials at a time where it became important to establish a base of cooperation in a remote location, but one which might provide sufficient facilities and resources and which could be camouflaged under an entirely different purpose, such as having a vocation as a gambling and entertainment resort? This might explain any number of things such as the presence in the form of Casinos of many of the Earth's main monuments such as the Giza Pyramid at the Luxor Hotel, the Eiffel Tower in miniature form, the resort presenting in one location the entire City of New York with its many monuments, the city of Venice and many other sites where it almost appears that the populations of Earth have symbolically placed their nations under the auspices of these Extraterrestrial visitors from VEGA presenting them with symbols of their countries in the form of scale models of their original monuments.

"Using a coronagraph on the Subaru telescope in Hawaii in 2005, astronomers were able to further constrain the size of a planet orbiting Vega to no more than 5–10 times the mass of Jupiter. Although a planet has yet to be directly observed around Vega, the presence of a planetary system can not yet be precluded. Thus there could be smaller, terrestrial planets orbiting closer to the star. The inclination of planetary orbits around Vega is likely to be closely aligned to the equatorial plane of this star."

Wikipedia: VEGA

This is, in summary, my hypothesis. That Aliens may have shown their presence to the United States government authorities immediately preceding the decision to build out in a remote region of the Nevada desert an invented city in the sand. That this city was named in reference to the Alien race which came from VEGA. That it has since been used to provide a host location for Alien activity on earth. That the management of this city by Intelligence Agencies associated with organized crime mobs has kept a tight lid on disclosure of the real goings on of said earth base. And that whoever might be indiscreet would find themselves at risk of a Mob Hit or an agency assassination team, being either "disappeared" or otherwise meeting an accidental end.

To conclude, I find it likely that something other than gambling and entertainment is going on at Las Vegas, and that there must be a lot more to this city than immediately meets the eye. Thanks in advance for your contributions to this theory. I expect that many will hoot and scoff, buying Hook, Line and SInker the image of Las Vegas as promoted by the media and commercial advertising as just a fun place to get drunk and run amok wasted and acting immature. Sin City might be a cover operation for a far more important geostrategic center. FWIW.

so wheres the connection to vega?
what you've stated is all 'what if's' and maybe's. wheres the connection to aliens?
just because its in nevada and workers in area 51 are picked up there, is'nt a connection to aliens
i cant see the tribute to aliens from vega anywhere in the OP
surely your not saying because of its name? vegas/vega?
no you wouldnt. would you? no surely not

EDIT: i posted the above when half of the op was presented.
it would help if you posted it all in one go. your profile said you were gone 7 minutes so i presumed the first 3 paragraphs was it. hence my post. which still stands btw

Life in the Vega system is considered to be unlikely among Earth's scientist. They site the fact that the habitable zone of the star is full of gas, dust, and meteors. It is theorized that the inner system suffered major collisions among its early proto-planets.

Sorry to be a poop...but this seems to cover it.

The first reported European visitor to the Las Vegas Valley was Raphael Rivera in 1829.[5] Las Vegas was named by Spaniards in the Antonio Armijo party, who used the water in the area while heading north and west along the Old Spanish Trail from Texas. In the 19th century, areas of the valley contained artesian wells that supported extensive green areas or meadows (vegas in Spanish); hence the name Las Vegas.en.wikipedia.org...

The Las Vegas oasis was first noticed in 1829 by Spanish explorers. They named this valley "Las Vegas" which means "the meadows." Mormon settlers arrived shortly thereafter and made this area home. The town itself was founded in 1905 but did not begin its incredible growth spurt until Nevada legalized gambling in 1931

OOOPS, JohnnyCanuck you beat me to it...

Area 51 does to testing it tests some of the most advanced tech that keeps you alive like the stealth bomber and the unmanned crafts. Nuclear test yes. no they don't have aliens ok. they test missile and do alot of military training exercises out there for various regions of the world that area closely resembles the middle east so they train there. if you really want to get to know the booms in the desert night.......www.area51.org... check it out it may help you on your next thread

Hi Secret Knowledge,


OK. Just have them bump this to the Skunk Works section of highly speculative topics. After all, this is a conspiracy website which means that we only believe the official version spoon fed to us by the authorities, and will never open our minds to another possibility unless a sledgehammer is used to wedge it into our brains.


"Provide me with incontrovertible proof and only then... just maybe... I will entertain the possibility that something might be different than the reality matrix I have been programmed to blindly believe."


I am not asking you however to believe anything. Only to voice whether you think it might be plausible that this city might have been created for reasons far different than the MYTH which is usually presented for public consumption?


Thanks for exercising an open mind, something for which years ago ATS was known, and which seems to be seriously lacking in more recent times.The huge concentration of capital and money funneling into Las Vegas happens to coincide with the timeline of the increase in sightings of UFOs and the Roswell incident:

"1947–1963: postwar boom and organized crime"'

Wikipedia: History of Las Vegas

The Howard Hughes mystery, of his disappearance and/or potential replacement as well as his deep implication in Black Ops of the Military Industrial complex also happens to be focused on Las Vegas were he officially resided for any number of years. FWIW.

Wow!!!.......crazy mobster murdered in mob hit!!

Who'd have thunk it!


Sorry mate, as far as theories go, this one is waaaaaay out there!

yes, it's so unusual for a hit to be carried out in the mob - what were they thinking?

interesting theory, stinks of abstract paranoia though.

Hi Johnny Canuck,

It is interesting to consider Las Vegas as such an oasis in the desert that it would have been nicknamed as:

"A fertile plain or valley; a tract of level and fruitful ground; a mead or a meadow."

Definition at Spanishdict.com

While this is possible I think it would be interesting to view photos from the second half of the 19th century - as historical revisionism is quite easy, especially for the authorities. The bookstore at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington D.C. sells 2 books on the subject of "The lies you were taught in history class". That should make one at minimum slightly suspicious of historical attributions without verification. FWIW.

okay wikipedia isn't a very great source its an opinion encyclopedia. you want history

www.lasvegasnevada.gov...

there you go all the history you like and if that ain't enough

www.lvol.com...
www.lonelyplanet.com...

next your going to tell me that frank sinatra is an annunaki leader

in the early days of Vegas, 'visitors' were flocking there for quicky divorces and not for the quicky marriages it is known for today.

Except by the fact that Giza pyramids are representing Orion Belt, not Vega, I think you are onto something big. Have you checked if there are black vans parked near your house??

Hi Miss Coyote,

Thanks for those links. The CIty of Las Vegas website provides early interesting pictures, notably of Fremont Street where the Mormon fort was established logically right were there was the greatest abundance of water, its remains were found in the immediate vicinity of Fremont Street. From the pictures we cannot exactly any level of luxuriant plant life testifying to any abundance of water, as alleged by the choice of this name in the 19th century. Furthermore the Wikipedia entry about the History of Las Vegas also makes the following statement regarding the geological history of this location which contradicts such a claim:

"The valley evolved into a parched, arid landscape that only supported the hardiest of animals and plants."

Please excuse me for begging to differ, but in my book "Parched" does not equate with "Luxuriant".

It'd make a nice Doctor Who episode....I'll give you that....but beyond the fictional world I don't think the theory holds much plausibility. Sorry.

reply to post by Getsmart


considering the mass expanse that the las vegas valley has changed do to mass development it is true that our land is now parch that most of the meadowy features were removed and most of the water is in the hoover damn which is shared with ARIZONA, So Cal, UTAH, and nevada itself so yes of course its arid. it supplies water to more than it self. talk about taking care of others. not to mention it rains minimally........so yes you wont see lush rolling hills of meadowy grasses.
