Area 51 is a geographical area of Nevada in the United States - also known as Dreamland, Watertown, The Ranch, Paradise Ranch, The Farm, The Box, Groom Lake, Area 51 A, Neverland or The Directorate for Development Plans Area - where is called a secret military base, testing among other experimental devices. It is mentioned for the first time on U.S. government documents declassified in August 2013 describing the secret testing of Lockheed U-21.
The UFO field frequently takes up the account to develop various conspiracy theories suggesting secret relations between the U.S. military and aliens. It is mainly known by its English name
5. Name
There are several theories about how Area 51 got its name, and the most popular one is that the facility borders the Nevada Test Site (NTS). The AEC used the NTS as testing grounds for nuclear bombs. The NTS is mapped as a grid of squares that are numbered from one to 30 (with a few omissions). Area 51, while not part of this grid, borders Area 15. Many say the site got the name Area 51 by transposing the 1 and 5 of its neighbor.
4. Secrecy
Despite being declassified, every person at Area 51, whether military or civilian, must sign a secrecy oath. All the buildings at the facility do not have windows, preventing employees and / or contractors from seeing anything not related to their own duties at the base - compartmentalized would be the best way to describe it. Some people who've been on base say that different teams would work on similar projects at the same time and when testing a secret aircraft, officials ordered all uninvolved employees to stay inside until the test flight was over and the aircraft returned to its hangar.
3. F-117
The Lockheed Have Blue prototype stealth fighter (a smaller proof-of-concept model of the F-117 Nighthawk) first flew at Groom in December 1977. In 1978, the Air Force awarded a full-scale development contract for the F-117 to Lockheed Corporation's Advanced Development Projects. On 17 January 1981 the Lockheed test team at Area 51 accepted delivery of the first full Scale Development (FSD) prototype 79�780, designated YF-117A. At 6:05 am on 18 June 1981 Lockheed Skunk Works test pilot Hal Farley lifted the nose of YF-117A 79�780' off the runway of Area 51.
2. JANET
It's estimated that over 1,000 people each day go to and from Area 51 and the most common method is via air commute (on unmarked JANET flights) from Las Vegas. The second is a white bus that picks up local commuters from Crystal Springs, Ash Springs, and Alamo. Though you may only be able tsee the JANET flights when they leave Las Vegas, the white bus can be seen each morning around 8:30AM, as it drives through the front gates of Area 51.
1. Bob Lazar
Robert Lazar shocked the world in 1987 when he went on television claiming to have been part of an operation that worked on alien technology. He stated that the government has had possession of at least nine alien spacecraft at a base called S-4, which is not far from Groom Lake. The facility even had diagrams showing a UFO levitating several feet above the ground with the caption "They're Here!" EG&G hired him to help reverse engineer the technology in the alien craft for use in U.S. military vehicles and power production.
