Roswell, New Mexico

In the summer 1947 hundreds if not thousands of UFO sightings were being reported from coast to coast.

On July 3, 1947, a rancher in Roswell, New Mexico discovered the wreckage of a crashed craft on one of his sheep pastures.

Days later, only a few miles from the crash site the bodies of four extraterrestrials were discovered.

The U.S. Army Air Force cleared away the wreckage over the next few days and issued a press release on July 8th dentifying the finding as a crashed flying saucer.

Hours later a second press release stated there had been a mistake and that the finding was actually a crashed weather balloon.

Area 51 at Groom Lake

Area 51 at Groom Lake (a super secret Air Force testing facility), is located about 25 miles south of the tiny town of Rachel (in Lincoln County), and, 100 and some odd miles north of Las Vegas, Nevada.

The base at Groom Lake came to be in the mid 1950s.

It was used as a remote testing location for the top secret U-2 spy plane. Other high tech aircraft that have been tested there include the SR-71 Blackbird and the F-117A stealth fighter.

Lockheed officials selected the site because of the presence of a solid dry lake bed which was used as a runway, it's remote location, and the proximity to the Atomic Test Site.

The Atomic Test Site eventually expanded to take in the Groom Lake area.

The region is said to be called "Area 51" because of the numbered 60 square mile area on the old Atomic Site map that now included Groom Lake.

Area 51's coordinates are 37°14'36.52"N, 115°48'41.16"W. Check it out on Google Earth.
