Area 51. It's a research center, but for what?

[clutch-monkey]

iirc it's mostly for all sorts black (or secret, whatever) aerospace projects, have a look at the runway there it's fucking huuuge!

There are no aliens at Area 51. It is an air base devoted to testing top secret aircraft, vehicles known to far too many people as UFOs. Honestly, just because the government doesn't tell you what they have there doesn't mean it's a conspiracy. You don't have the right to know EVERYTHING (I'm talking to those Americans who think government secrets are wrong), especially if it's a matter of national security, and the government probably doesn't want a foreign field agent who's been living and blending in in the US for five years to find out what new awesome bomber we are developing.

No, you're right, black means secret. If you already know that... then I didn't say anything.

Mmm... How very inappropriate, thank you.

Hanger 18 is in Area 51.
I want to see Hanger 18.

On Topic: I think it is just like Indiana Jones, with all the boxes with stuff being
examine by Top Men.

yeah i thought it was haha
the runway at area 51 is really long, iirc like..longer than any current aircraft would ever need. speculation is that it might be for ramjet projects?

 

[awsome117]

It's the place where you know everything about, but you know nothing. You've been there, but you haven't been there. You've seen it, but haven't seen it. You've tasted it, and it tastes like something you find on the bottom of a package.

So really, you've know what it was before you didn't.

But that's the real question isn't it...

I'd think SCRAMjet projects. We've already done RAMjets, like the SR-71, but I guess we wouldn't be working too much with SCRAMjets, given their atrocious fuel efficiency. I don't know. Maybe.

 

[bassdrum]

I had a discussion with my friends about this a few months back. I decided that the government is researching rabbits, but doesn't tell us so that it doesn't look like they're wasting funds. After all, alien research is far more intriguing than bunnies.

i wonder if they could land a shuttle there? and if they've ever had to?

it's where the US military hides santa claus as the north pole is melting....duh don't you know anything.....

Why would we ever harbor a communist? (He wears red, distributes toys to all the good little children, regardless of wealth, ie equal benefit, ie to those of you who didn't get it I'm kidding)

you got quite a good point but then again when have the US ever made sence the last 10-15 years

It's Cerberus's first base of operations.

In a society where left wing politics had us replacing the explosives on our missles with concrete to "avoid civilian casualties" during The War On Terror, it's pretty obvious that if people found out about super-weapons there would be a political sh@tstorm about how nobody should be allowed to have stuff like whatever they are making.

I am hoping you are joking but I suspect you are not. Can you link me a sources?

http://www.fas.org/news/iraq/1999/10/991007-iraq.htm

You can find more on this kind of thing, that's just a quick link. Look up concrete bombs and concrete missles. The former is much easier.

A 900kg rock falling at 9.8m/s, impacting the ground, has a tremendous amount of force. That's basically dropping a Honda Civic on a house from a plane.

Sure, but at the same time we have spent billions of dollars building bombs and missles designed to level buildings and unleash death and destruction over a wide area. The entire point of such research being that if we ever went to war we would level our enemies. We also hoped that we would never have to wind up using them.

etc etc etc

Whoa professor, slow down. I didn't come here to read a dissertation.

Omni Comsumer Products. It's their national headquarters.

Are you referring to Starcraft? Because I can totally see one of them being in there, controlling us all...

Well at first I was thinking Mass Effect (refer to avatar) but yeah Starcraft works too lol

 

[siffty]

its a cover up for aria 51 and a half

 

[VicunaBlue]

THey test aircraft there. The stories of the Aliens came from many instances, such as the testing of the Stealth Bomber, and various parachute flare tests.
