Conspiracy Theories

Area 51 has been a point of mystery for a long time and many people have different theories about what this top-secret government base in a remote section of Nevada contains. Many people believe that the base has something to do with Alien activity. Some believe that the base is home to Alien spacecraft or that the US is manufacturing vehicles based off of Alien technology. Some think that the workers there study dead Aliens or captured aliens that were found after the UFO crashes. Others believe that the US uses the facility to negotiate with extraterrestrial beings. Another popular theory is that the base is used to create technology that most people believe hasn’t been invented yet. Energy weapons, weather control, and time travel are all facets of this particular theory. The Aurora Aircraft Program is thought to be a result of Area 51. A different theory claims that the base is home to a secret society of government officials that control the country. They also believe that the original moon landing was simulated and filmed here. Others think that the base exists as a misdirection attempt and that all of the secret doings now occur somewhere else. In this theory the base simply exists to capture the attention of conspiracy theorists. The different interpretations of these events are examples of the wild speculation that can occur when people experience something that they don’t understand. It’s like how the book explains that sometimes a good story let’s the audience come to their own conclusions. Some of the alien based theories have some supporters who claim to have worked at Area 51 or to have footage of alien interviews. This is why this is most popular of the theories leading to public perception to lean toward this line of thought. I think that movies and television have warped the views of many in this particular instance. Many movies and shows utilize these conspiracy theories as a plot mechanism. Slowly this can lead to audiences perceiving this as true even without factual basis. I think that what people believe about Area 51 depends largely on what phenomena they believe in and on how much they trust the US government.
