Nix said:Didn't they develop the SR-71, the stealth bomber and other planes there?
It's secret because they don't want the technology they're developing to be known to their enemies. The UFO thing could be true, I don't know so I can't say for certain. It does however play into the hands of the USA in terms that it's a handy cover up story and leads to many conspiracies.
I remember watching a documentary once, where many locals thought the stealth bomber was an alien craft because of its strange shape.
My dad lives in Mildenhall, the place the SR71 was based in the UK

I haven't read the entire thread, so not sure if anyone has commented, but is it not true that Area 51 was officially closed down? I remember seeing a documentary on TV, all the research etc has apparently been moved to a 'new' location. May be wrong however!
