Why Is Area 51 Focused On by Conspiracy Theorists?
The remote location of Area 51, being some one-hundred miles outside of Las Vegas, Nevada, coupled with a military guard at all times, has meant that no one has ever gotten close enough to find out exactly what goes on in there. The most famous conspiracy to rise out of all this secrecy is the world-famous Roswell Crash, where a local farmer supposedly found the remains of a UFO crash all across his land. While a press release at the time helped to explain logically what this crash could’ve been (namely, a weather balloon), many believe this is simply a cover-up for actual discoveries and experiments going on at the site. Are 51: The CIA’s Secret investigates newly surfaced documents about the aviation research done there by the US military which helps to shine a light on the truth, but many remain unconvinced. To this day, Area 51 is under heavy military guard and has little to no communication with the outside world, and in the absence of information, people have drawn their own conclusions on what experiments go on there.
