Find Area 51...

don't cheat and find it using instructiosn online either.. way more fun on your own.

 

[Bangor]

I was trying to find that like a week ago. I'm stumped. I started off around Roswell.

 

[whattheshit]

its really easy to find.

 

[whattheshit]

here ill d/l the google earth for this laptop

 

[whattheshit]

alright its at 37.14 degrees north and 115.48 west

now go to layers and check the first three boxes. check out this dude cipherain. he must work there or something. he's got everything labelled. messed up shit.

 

[1080_grinder]

google earth is awsome

 

[Bangor]

Well, a Google search turned up coordinates. Ironic considering it's one of "the most secret places on Earth".

37 14'2"N, 115 49'2"W

Now.

Find Chernyobyl.

 

[Bangor]

HOLY SHIT. Doing some reading about Area 51. The protected area is the size of Rhode Island and Connecticut combined.

Not bad considering it doesn't "exist".

 

[whattheshit]

as i said before put on the keyhole community BBS check box and look at things outside of area 51, you can see craters from nuclear bomb testing. and then click more and it will take you to a bbs where people attempt to give an explanation

 

[Bangor]

37 10'37.21N, 116 02'46.89"W

Check out that big hole. According to the view thingy in Google Earth, that's over a mile wide, and 300+ feet deep.

 

[whattheshit]

The Sedan Crater was the largest of the Project Plowshare series of underground nuclear blasts, 23 in all, to determine the feasibility of using nuclear devices to excavate large amounts of earth. Better living with nukes!

Yeah, sure, it all looked good on paper. A huge savings versus conventional explosives, something like a 3000% difference. And as the overlay shows, it works too. Moved a whole bunch of earth just by drilling one hole 635' deep and placing a 100 kiloton device in the bottom. With the press of one button, a crater 320 feet deep and 1,280 feet in diameter appears! Over 12 million tons of earth have just been displaced. And as a bonus, you only have 8 million tons of earth to deal with, because 4 million tons of it just kinda drifted away......

I just wonder why it took them 23 times to realize why this wouldn't work?

BEFORE

DURING

AFTER

 

[whattheshit]

if you go south to that you will notice hundreds of craters. those are all from nuclear tests. underground.

[almostaskier]

that crater field is so intense... i saw in a "faked moon landing" video, since disproven, that they thought the flimings of the moon surface was done there... any good conspiracy needs area 51.

crazy stuff.

 

[almostaskier]

holy...

" saw in a "faked moon landing" video, since disproven, that they thought the flimings of the moon surface was done there... " ???????

i saw a faked moon landing documentary a while back, and it has since been disproven, but in the video, they suspected that the filming of the lunar surface was done there at area 51. sorry.
