The Road to Area 51

"Area 51. It's the most famous military institution in the world that doesn't officially exist. If it did, it would be found about 100 miles outside Las Vegas in Nevada's high desert, tucked between an Air Force base and an abandoned nuclear testing ground.

Then again, maybe not-- the U.S. government refuses to say. You can't drive anywhere close to it, and until recently, the airspace overhead was restricted--all the way to outer space. Any mention of Area 51 gets redacted from official documents, even those that have been declassified for decades..."

Paranormal Case #2 – Are there aliens at Area 51?

Background/description:

Area 51 is a top secret military base that lies in southern portion of Nevada. Built in the 1950’s it has since then been a testing ground for top secret military projects, like the U2 spy plane. So why do people thinks there aliens on the base? It is probably because of a man named Bob Lazar who 1989 claimed that he had been working on top secret projects involving aliens. A thing that also may have part is the isolation of the base and the little we actually know about what happens on the base.

Evidence for:
Actually, there is no evidence to support the existence of aliens on Area 51. The only thing we can go on is Bob Lazars stories and those may not be true. Sometimes strange lights have been seen over the base, but they are most probably only secret military projects.

Evidence against:
No evidence of aliens actually being on Area 51 have never been put forward and it is very unlikely that there are aliens there.

Conclusion:
Based on the information we have on Area 51, it is very unlikely that aliens exists there. There have neither credible eyewitnesses nor any official government documents in support of the alien theory.
