Conspiracy Theories and UFO Myths Surrounding Area 51
Area 51 is a military facility located in Lincoln County, Nevada. Many people are curious about the facility maybe because there is not a lot information on it. The government said that the base is a testing ground of experimental aircraft and weapon systems. However, many people who do not believe what the government declared about the base.
The attempt of the government to cover-up the existence of the place and various reports on UFO or alien related phenomena cause it to become the major subject of conspiracy theories and UFO stories.
There are reports that the facility is an alien spacecraft storage where crashed UFOs are experimented to have reverse engineering of the alien technology that can be used in developing new war aircraft. Moreover, development of deadly weapons based on alien technology, said to be more powerful than today’s weapon, is also suspected.
Conspiracy theorists further believe that the government captured living aliens and authorities try to investigate them while dead aliens are also examined. There are also reports that Area 51 was the shooting place of the entire moon landing in 1969. Many people also think the most secret activities in Area 51 were transferred to another place, and Area 51 is just a misdirection attempt.
Among the major people who surfaced to reveal the secret activities of Area 51 is Bob Lazar. He claimed that he had worked at the military base known as S-4. He said that S-4 is the specific area of Area 51 where reverse engineering on spaceships is done. There were many other self-proclaimed former worker in Area 51 had surfaced after Bob Lazar including Dan Crain, who claimed to have worked on cloning alien viruses and a man named Victor, who showed a video tape of alien interrogation at Area 51.



One myth heard was all about Area 51 being related to underground tunnels through trains that can travel to different places of the country. The core thought for all these stories being heard is the absence of official proofs to clearly clarify what happens truly there. Nonetheless, five men who are very acquainted with Area 51 decided to come out of their shell and share what they know. They were Col. Hugh “Slip” Slater, Edward Lovick, Ken Collins, Thornton “T.D.” Barnes and Harry Martin. All of them are part of the Area 51 team.
This agreement is often depicted in political situations wherein politicians are killing each other in order to take the place or seat in force. However, what if this secret agreement is intended for things that are very unusual?
Area 51 was mentioned briefly in 1988 during a special 2-hour television broadcast of FOX TV regarding UFO cover-up entitled “UFO COVER-UP Live.”
Bob Lazar, who claimed to work as a physicist at one of the areas of the base known as Sector Four or S-4, met Knapp in 1989. Lazar alleged that several studies of alien spacecraft took place in this military facility. He said that the main objective of the study is to do reverse-engineering of alien technology to understand how it worked.
