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.
Here are the 4 main sturctures:
Hanger 18
A "huge" hanger that could be used for almost anything.
The "Long" Runway
A runway that's 12 miles long.
Gaurd Shack
This is where the cammo dudes (security gaurds) hang out.
The Large Radar Antennas
Large Radar Antennas.
The dimensions of the Hanger:
Side 1: 300 feet(about)
Side 2: 300 feet(about)
Height: 100 feet(about)
This hanger could be used anything. Nobody knows what it's really used for, but here are the rumors...
The hanger is really a huge
elevator which transports the secret plane Aurora, the Black Manta, and others
they are testing to an elaborate underground place.
It houses the Aurora and the
Black Manta(but does not transport them anywhere).
It could be a regular
hanger.
You can see the runway in the photo above. It runs through the whole picture.
Some people say it's 12 miles long, some say it's 10, but I say it's 6. Of
course, in this picture, it looks like it's 24 miles long, and maybe it is. The
runway is rumored to be the longest in the world. It's even longer, some people
say, than the length required to accomodate the landing of the space shuttle.
What could such a long runway be used for? Nobody knows. Again, the rumors:
The Aurora, (or what I think,
the scramjet) has a very high touchdown speed and requires a long runway, so the
plane doesn't become a heap of trash after it lands.
Alien spaceships, because they
are not flying saucers also need a long runway.
What we think is a runway is
really a road(even though we photographed planes on it and know that this rumor
is false.
The Area 51 guys made a big
runway ahead of time, just in case that they might get some advanced technology,
and so they would have the space to use it right away.
Every secret military base has to have a gaurd shack. If you were expecting tall steel walls, tall towers with machine-gun cannons on top, security cameras, helicopters, radar dishes, lots of security gaurds parading around with high-tech gear, you're wrong. This gaurd shack looks like something a hermit might live in. It doesn't do much either, except be a place where the cammo dudes can hang out. You can go up to the gaurd shack, but then you would be fined $600. This picture was probably taken by someone who ignored the warning signs and drove up to it.
The Large Radar Antennaes
Every military base has to have radar antennas to see attacks coming. Area 51 has 2 large radar antennas, some small radar antennas, and other sensors. All those sensors are at the Northern side of the base. It's rumored that the Northern-most radar antenna is the biggest movable antenna in the world. It opperates at a very high power output. The large one almost always points up, but moves once in a while. Why is this important? It isn't. I just put it here to tell you about it.
