What Is Area 51?
5. Roswell 1947
Roswell is a city that is located in New Mexico. In 1947, an incident occurred that have conspiracy theorists convinced that the US government was covering up a crashed UFO. The official line is that the crashed objects were simply high-altitude research balloons, but this does nothing to stop the conspiracy theorists.
Many conspiracy theorists are convinced that Area 51 played a key role in the alleged cover up. It is believed that the alleged crashed UFO was taken there to be studied and kept away from public view. Some even claim that aliens discovered at the site were taken to Area 51 for an autopsy, and that surviving aliens were even held there in captivity.
