Recently we have had several questions from visitors about Area 51 also known as Groom Lake.  Primary question seems to be what is at Area 51?  The only answer we can offer is this:  We don't know!  Area 51 is a restricted area.  Signs posted at all entrances state that if you do not have clearance to enter the facility you can be shot.  Because of this we opted not, when we visited the area, to cross the line.  We watched throughout the night and day.  We took turns watching the sky for any unusual objects and made notes of such and took photos if possible.  

The next question asked is:  Are there aliens at Area 51?
Our answer:  We Don't Know!  According to Bob Lazar, who reportedly worked at Area 51, there not only were aliens there but alien craft as well.  Is it true?  We don't know!  Some say Bob Lazar made up the entire thing.  Others say he is telling the truth.  

Area 51, also known as Groom Lake, is a secret military base in the desert of Nevada.  Though not terribly secret any more, it does exist.  However, the ability to approach this area is not open to the public, even though everything that takes place there is paid for by the public.  It is not certain all that does take place there.  A few short years ago some of the non-military employees working on the base filed a workman's compensation claim against the base because of endangering their lives exposing them to toxic chemical burn off.  However, Bill Clinton, then President, stopped the action under the guise of national security and maintained the protection of this area in that pen stroke.  Not only did he deal away the rights of the employees being harmed but he eliminated the military (U.S. Air Force) from having to answer to the Environmental Protection Agency for anything they do in Area 51.  Thus endangering the lives of all on this planet - since we have no idea what they do in fact do at Area 51.  It is for this reason we believe a Congressional investigation should be organized and have an independent environmental group investigate the actions of the Air Force at Area 51 to determine the type of hazards they are generating in our environment.  
So what goes on at Area 51?  No public person knows for certain.  Should we be made aware of the hazardous material they are releasing to the atmosphere and effecting our environment:  YES!  Should they be given a free ride to do as they please under the guise of National Security?  NO!  The military works for us, the people, and should have to answer to us for their actions...I'm sure they don't like that idea but that is the way our governmental system was established.  
Are there aliens at Area 51 - probably not!  Are there UFOs there?  Doubtful, if they were ever there, because of all the publicity surrounding Area 51.  Will we ever know for certain?  Doubtful.  Though the claim of National Security is a thin excuse for keeping dangerous hazards secret.
