_Only Posted July 25, 2013 #4 Share Posted July 25, 2013 (edited) Yes, Area 51 definitely exists, and likely has things on the premises that are being hidden from the public eye. How do I know? First hand experience getting caught on the grounds, getting stopped by the military, and having the one in charge tell the other "well, he's not close enough to see anything from here anyway" while looking at the horizon of the area we were in. What these things are though, is anyone's guess. Top secret air force technology would be my first guess. edit: But this photo I took gives a great gauging of just how remote the base is, which was mentioned in the video. The mailbox they were at in the beginning was at the corner of the 'E.T. Highway and a small unnamed dirt and gravel road. This road is the road that leads into Area 51. It takes hours of driving through rural desert to reach this point, and you can see from the photo how much further you still have to go. What is beyond the mountains only those with the right credentials can see: Edited July 25, 2013 by _Only 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found Rachel, Nevada using Google Earth..........not much there. Out in the middle of nowhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Only Posted July 25, 2013 #10 Share Posted July 25, 2013 (edited) It looks like he made it to Rachel, Nevada. He did, and also went right up to the dividing line over into Area 51 grounds, which is where the white guard truck was situated on the hill. This is considered the 'front entrance'. Here is an eye level view of Rachel (population: 98+-): The main draw (for me, at least) isn't what you can find there, as much as what you won't find there. A shopping center, post office, police station, Starbucks, etc. One of the smallest towns around situated in the middle of the desert, right next to a top secret military base. This draw of mystique alone generates a quite respectable amount of visitors. I just felt bad that around the town there were so many 'NO TRESPASSING' and 'PRIVATE PROPERTY' signs, and no one was outside in the entire town, save a few at the Inn, and a few of us travelers. I don't think the general population enjoys the town's only source of real income. Edited July 25, 2013 by _Only 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I absolutely agree with you: why so much security and military presence if there's nothing going on? I couldn't say whether the unidentified objects are man made or extraterrestrial.....but I want to believe we are not alone in the universe. ~ My first post here, by the way, love this place and finally decided to join~ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The U2 Spy Plane was developed there. CIA : Red Hat Area - One way or another the CIA obtains Russian Fighter Jets ...ie Mig 29. The Red Hat division takes them apart, puts them back together and flys them around Area 51. The base perimeter is patrolled by Wackenhut Security (Cammo Dudes). There is a small mountain range directly behind the Area 51 base. The entire mountain range is an underground base. S1 / S2 / S3 / S4 The dry lake on the other side is called Papoose Dry Lake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
