Roswell UFO Conspiracy and 5 Other Alien Conspiracy Theories

6. Area 51

Movies have been done on this topic, books have been written, and TV shows have been shot in Hollywood and beyond – Area 51, the secretive military base out in the Nevada desert.

When it comes to this particular location, there’s no secret about its existence. It’s there, it can be seen, we know about it. What happens inside of it, however, is the big unknown. The US government’s tight-lipped attitude regarding the purpose of Area 51 is what gets people talking and what has given birth to so many theories about what is going on in there. That, plus the fact that there are a lot of “trespassers will be shot” signs and the no-fly zone around the military base.

Conspiracy theorists believe that the entire area is the base for various experiments taking place underground, in a complex tunnel maze. What’s more, it’s probably full of aliens in there, or, more specifically their bodies, which are being dissected and experimented on. Some even believe there are UFOs stashed in there somewhere, with scientists working to reverse engineer the technologies.
