Introduction
Congratulations on downloading this book and thank you for doing so.
Conspiracy theories are an interesting topic, and many people love to learn about them, whether they seem far-fetched or not. Some will do research on the theories and find they believe them, and some are quick to denounce any theory as false, and sometimes outright ridiculous.
Conspiracy is defined as a secret plan by a group of people to do something unlawful or harmful, and of course, a theory is just that: a theory. So a conspiracy theory is a hypothesis that there is a group of people secretly planning some harmful or criminal activity. The term used to mainly be used to describe any claim of political, civil, or criminal conspiracy, but has more recently come to be understood to mean a fringe theory that explains an event, either historical or current, as being carried out by a group of conspirators.
Some believe that conspiracy theorists are mentally ill, or otherwise unstable, whereas some see them as seekers of truth, as people who are able to see things, connections, that others may not be able to, and who are unafraid to speak out against the status quo. This book outlines 20 of the top conspiracy theories, going briefly into their history, the beliefs involved, and the reasons why. See for yourself: fact, or fiction?
There are plenty of books on this subject on the market, thanks again for choosing this one! Every effort was made to ensure it is full of as much useful information as possible. Please enjoy!
Area 51
What is Area 51?
Area 51 is a detachment of the Edwards Air Force Base. While the base itself is located in California, Area 51 is situated about 83 miles northwest of Las Vegas, in Nevada. The area is owned by the US Government and is operated by the US Air Force. The stated purpose of Area 51 is to develop and test experimental aircraft and weapons to be used by the US military. Area 51 is also referred to by other names, such as Dreamland, Paradise Ranch, Homey Airport, and Home Base. Military personnel often use the terms "the box" and "the container" to refer to the restricted airspace around Area 51.
Why is it so interesting?
The main reason that many people are interested in Area 51 is that there is a lot of secrecy surrounding the base. While there is often a lot of secrecy around any area that is testing and experimenting with new weaponry and aircraft for the military, some believe that the shroud around Area 51 hides deeper, even extraterrestrial secrets. One reason for this is that the US government will often not even acknowledge the existence of the base. They wont talk about it and dont address the area.
Another of the main reasons for the intrigue is the number of lights that people see in the sky above Area 51. People are told that the lights are due to the weapons and aircraft development going on in the base and that there is nothing extraterrestrial about it, but believers are not convinced.
It is believed that alien spaceships crash landed in the area, and were retrieved by military personnel. Its thought that much of the development and experimentation of weapons and aircraft done at the base are not on pieces of technology that had their origins here on Earth, but on the alien crafts that crashed on the site, including those materials they say were recovered at Roswell. Its said that scientists, employed by the military, are trying to reverse engineer alien technology for use by the military. Not only are they studying the crafts, but theyre also examining the occupants that were found in the crafts, living as well as dead.
Its not only the study and engineering of technology that is said to happen at Area 51. Those who believe in the theory that strange things are happening there also believe that the government holds meetings with extraterrestrials there, and therefore secrecy and airspace restrictions are necessary to ensure that no one knows they are receiving visitors from beyond our planet.
Aliens aren't the only things that are said to be studied at Area 51. It is also believed that the government is using the space to develop technology that would make time travel a reality, as well as teleportation. They also believe that the government has been developing a way to control the weather and that they may already be using that technology today.
Many of the ideas of the strange happenings at Area 51 center around the underground facilities located at Papoose Lake or Groom Lake. People also believe that there is a transcontinental train system that starts at Area 51 and allows personnel to quickly, secretly, travel across the US. Also, the suspect is an airstrip that is said to disappear, dubbed the Cheshire Airstrip, after the cat in Lewis Carrolls novels that disappears.
There have been several people that have said to have knowledge of things that support the conspiracy theories surrounding Area 51. A man named Bob Lazar said in 1989 that he was under contract to work with alien spacecraft that the government possessed. There was also a documentary in 1996 called Dreamland, directed by Bruce Burgess. It had an interview with a then 71-year-old man who was a mechanical engineer who said he used to work at Area 51 in the 1950s. The man said that he had been working on a "flying disc simulator, and that it was based on a piece of an extraterrestrial craft that was recovered from a crash site, and that was used to train US pilots. The man also said that he had worked with a being, not of our world, called "J-Rod, who he described as a "telepathic translator.
Another man named Dan Crain, who worked under the pseudonym of Dan Burisch, said in 2004 that he had been working on cloning viruses of alien origin at Area 51 and that he worked with J-Rod as well.
