I think you are overlooking a significant point.

If you accept that there is an Area 51, what are the other 50 areas?


And what are they doing *there*?

I believe 'Watertown' is the official name for Area 51, dating back to 1950's. The name 'Area 51' was introduced few years later when the government, army or whoever seized lands around it.

EDIT: Sorry, it's now called 'Air Force Flight Test Center, Detachment 3'.

There's been more " Probing " about Area 51 than all the ones the Aliens have been accused of.

Bah if aliens landed here they'd probably end up starting a world war just because of their presence. :rotfl:

I remember watching the moon landing as a young kid on a television at school.

I'm not so sure now
