Area 51 viewed from satellite.
The secluded 920 square kilometer area near Groom Lake, in the Nevada desert is one of the most mysterious places in the world. Many people suspect, this area 51 is the focus of American UFO research.
Operating since 1955, but until 2013, Area 51 was only acknowledged by the CIA to exist and operate for the purpose of researching reconnaissance aircraft.
In late 1947, a series of strange objects were thought to be unidentified flying objects (UFOs) that landed on American territory. Therefore, in 1949, the US carried out a secret project called Project Grudge to study UFOs.
The initial results of the project show a lot of UFO records on the fact that the aircraft was either unable to identify the source due to insufficient information. When the project was announced to the public, some people criticized the project because they thought the UFO reports were untrue.
In 1946, the American Paper Clip Program was conducted when agreed by President Harry Truman. The purpose of this program is to recruit Nazi scientists to work in the US to attract talents after the war and to avoid valuable knowledge from getting into the hands of the Soviet Union.
Wernher von Braun is a scientist at the top of America's recruitment list, and later he is the head of the Apollo mission to explore the moon.
This project is one of the most famous top secret projects in the world. The Manhattan Project was built to study and create the first atomic bombs during World War II.
On July 16, 1945, the first nuclear device was tested in New Mexico state. Less than a month after two atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan claimed tens of thousands of lives and left consequences until today.
This is a plan with the participation of many NATO countries during the Cold War period. The program was developed to prevent the Soviet Union from going into conflict.
The Gladio program has the task of preparing secret troops to counter the Soviet offensive during the war. In 1990, the Italian prime minister published information about this force on a website.
Fearing the Soviet repossession of Alaska state, in the early years of the Cold War the US government recruited and trained a secret military group that provided wartime intelligence. 89 native Alaskans were trained in encryption techniques, decrypting information to spy on Soviet troops if they attacked Alaska.
In 2014, documents about this program were published.
After World War II, tensions between the US and the Soviet Union increased. In 1967, the CIA spent up to $ 20 million to train Soviet scouts called "Scout Cats" (Ascoustic Kitty).
Cats are implanted with reconnaissance devices such as recorders, antennas, transmission equipment, etc., to spy on the Soviet Union. In 2001, the US National Security Agency released documents related to this project.
In 1968, American B52 aircraft crashed near Thule, Greenland and four thermonuclear bombs. The US and Danish military carried out a project to remove radioactivity and collect debris in this area.
In 1959, the US military set up the Horizon project to build a military base on the Moon before NASA could bring people up here in 1969.
Another US Air Force program also aims to build a base to attack Earth from space. As planned, to prove America's power to the world, a nuclear bomb will be detonated on the Moon.
Lunik spacecraft
In the early 1960s, the Soviet and US space races reached the peak when the Soviet Union launched many Moon exploration satellites. In response to this situation, the CIA outlined a plan to "kidnap" the Soviet Lunik spacecraft within one night.
One night, the CIA "borrowed" the satellite, disassembled, took pictures and returned the status quo to the Soviet Union. There is no record that the Soviet Union has detected this "kidnapping".
In 1946, the US launched the Crossroad campaign to carry out a series of nuclear weapons tests at Bikini Atoll in order to study their influence on naval vessels.
In July 2016, documents about this horrific campaign were revealed, information about the harmful effects of radiation on civilians was published.
