That's impossible. The TV told me for decades that only liars and crazy people think Area 51 is real. They also said its best to make fun of these crazy people, in order to help them to conform to society.

Therefore : "LOL u r so stupid! u Prolly think aliens r reel 2!!! OMG stop being Sooooo dum and come watch Jersey shore w me! it'll raize you're IQ! ! "

Seriously, however, I thought it had been officially recognized years ago now? I didn't even realize that its existence was even a debate anymore - just what they do there being the ongoing debate.

The base was never classified anyway.

This is more of the same..."so what...we knew that already..."...like the Snowden case.

But it isn't. It's nice reference for all future debunkers...yes...conspiracies do happen...and yes...the Government/Military is keeping many secrets from you.

I think this is an attempt to but a giant middle finger up at as all.


For years we have been speculating, and we still can, but this provides more facts and confirms what is most likely the reality of what is going on there. They have just led us on a goose chase.

Also, it could also mean that if Area 51 is not that important the US government anymore.... What are they really hiding elsewhere.

I'm sure everyone knew area51 existed without being told by big daddy "you're right son here's a map showing it" thing is, while we all stand outside area51 baying for blood, IS IT just a front, where is the real action situated or stowed away.... not saying this is true but it can't be denied either....

You can see the entire base on Google maps satellite view. Go north of indian springs it is nestled in between papoose mountain and bald mountain next to the dry lake bed (groom lake). There is a giant X on groom lake for some odd reason, and the bulk of the complex is built underground and into the mountain.

Sorry, DYepes, but the is no underground complex at Area 51. What you see is what you get: hangars, runways, radar sites, administration buildings and support infrastructure. That's it.

The existence of the Groom Lake facility has never been secret. In 1955 the CIA crafted a statement for release to the news media through the Atomic Energy Commission to inform the public of construction of the new base. This statement, describing the location and basic configuration of the airfield (then known as Watertown Airstrip) was given to newspapers, television reporters, and radio stations in Nevada and Utah. In 1959, the media was further informed of progress on "Project 51" at Groom Lake where EG&G was moving their radar facilities. In January 1960, an unclassified Nevada Test Site newsletter published "new Area 51 telephone numbers" for the base commander, security office, and base contractor. Area 51 appeared on numerous unclassified maps, including those handed out to the general public by the AEC. The most famous acknowledgement of the existence of the facility was the 1995 declaration by President Bill Clinton in regard to "the Air Force operating location near Groom Lake." The CIA declassified its association with Area 51 in 2010, finally allowing the terms "Groom Lake" and "Area 51" to be used freely in discussions and documents regarding the Agency's historic activities at the site.

This picture is my favorite so far because it looks so strange thanks to that jeep and odd upside-down jet radar thing

1. Area 51 is probably not even relevant to the big picture. The government probably just wanted everyone to be obsessed with it while it worked on it's real business in Alaska or something.

2. Or maybe they just want you to think that, and Area 51 is attempting to hide in plain site. A "secret base which is not actually that secret due to pop culture etc" but actually being secret even if people roll their eyes at the notion of Area 51 being relevant these days.

Who knows. We won't. Creating confusion is easier than people think.

What's good for Area 51 is that to good to a good view point where you would actually see a test is pretty difficult without being seen first.

So they would know your there before you get there and decide whether to test an aircraft or not, but even if they do decide to test an aircraft while your on tikkaboo peak the chances of you getting a pic are pretty slim as they fly on moonless nights and just use one light while taking off. So in the distance all you would be able to make out is that one light against a dark sky.

You have to give groom lake so credit after all these years no one has been able to manage to get a decent picture of a test article flying out of it.
