Hola mis queridos amigos, ¿habéis visto alguna vez un OVNI? ¿Creéis en la posible existencia extraterrestre? ¿Habéis visitado alguna vez el Área 51 en Nevada, Estados Unidos? En mi caso siempre he estado interesada en los OVNIS y he visto cantidad de programas de televisión, películas e informes sobre esto, en Estados Unidos, España y en el resto del mundo.
Empecé a interesarme por los OVNIS cuando tenía 8 años y tuve una experiencia personal sobre ello: Una mañana, en el exterior de mi colegio, vi, con el resto de alumnos y profesores, en el suelo, "las huellas quemadas de una estructura" de lo que "podría ser un OVNI". ¡Tenía forma circular y era enorme! Inmediatamente, llegaron militares y policías, rodearon la zona y nos dijeron que no le contásemos a nadie lo que habíamos visto allí. ¡Desde entonces he estado buscando pruebas de la existencia de OVNIS y alienígenas y he llegado a mi propia conclusión!
AREA 51 - NEVADA / A CENTER OF UFO ACTIVITY
It is late in the evening when we arrive at the top-secret military base known as Area 51. To reach the base means a drive along the Extraterrestrial Highway, which was given its name in 1996 because of the area's association with UFO activity. There have been more sightings of UFOS reported around Area 51 than anywhere else in the US.
Our bus tour is organized by MUFON (the Mutual UFO Network). Founded in 1969, it is one of the world's oldest and largest organizations dedicated to the investigation of UFO sightings. The Area 51 Tour is the final event of a four-day annual MUFON symposium that was held in Las Vegas, Nevada and that focused on classified space programs possibly run by the US government.
SECRET TESTING
The tour takes us 150 miles north of Las Vegas through desert terrain where few people live, at least of the human kind! We stop at an alien-themed complex called Little A'le Inn in the city of Rachel, before arriving at the "back gate" of Area 51. This is an entrance to the base that is constantly monitored and secured with a barrier, warning signs, motion detectors and sensors, security cameras, all kinds of guards, helicopters and even F16s!
Area 51 is a United States Air Force facility that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) established in 1955 and located within the Nevada Test and Training Range near Groom Lake. The range was created for the development of the Lockheed U-2 strategic reconnaissance aircraft, but the CIA did not publicly acknowledge the existence of Area 51 until 2013, and has never revealed its primary purpose today.
ALIEN DEBRIS
Most people believe that the facility is centered on the development and testing of experimental aircraft and weapons systems, yet some are convinced that it is also dedicated to studying UFO and alien-related activity and technology. One of the tasks of its military personnel, they believe, is the replication of extraterrestrial aircraft that have been found crash-landed on Earth. Tours are strictly forbidden inside the base. The security of Area 51 is paramount. There's not really any place in the world that rivals the security out of Area 51.
Lots and lots of movies, books and things have Area 51 in them due to the number of unidentified sighting of objects that have been seen out there and the sightings have been of craft that are not conventional by means of what the public knows.
If there are aliens among us, now it could be the time to tell us but the people in general may not be ready to know this information and so governments avoid communicating it and they prefer to keep the secret only for themselves!
