<P>The base itself is used by the U.S. Military as a test site, where new and unproven airplanes are testflown with the utmost of secrecy. Some of the planes flown here include the Stealth-bomber (used in Bosnia) and the Blackbird. The mysterious objects in the sky seen by some people might well be these planes out on a testspin, which sounds very plausible.

<P>Apparently the base also doubles as some kind of dumping ground for toxic wastes. Several workers have stood forward with this claim (some anonymously, some not) and have told the media about this. Apparently the workers have literally been pouring toxins into the ground, thus not only polluting the earth, but also damaging their own health. They have tried taking it to the courts in order to get some kind of compensation, but to no avail.
<P>
<P>At first glance they seem to have the advantage: They have the proof to back up the claims (some of the workers even died because of the toxics), they have a dedicated lawyer and they have got the attention of the media. What is missing here? The defendant, that's who. They haven't got somebody to sue, because -- and now it gets truely ironic -- the U.S. Government doesn't recognize the existence of Area 51, thus effectively eliminating any possible lawsuit whatsoever. Bummer, huh?
<P>
<P>Come back next week for the third and final installment. It will answer questions about the Illuminati, a hidden organization whos existence dates back to 17th century Germany. Some believe that the Illuminati still are in power and that they seek to rule the world from the hidden. Find out next week right here on Deus Ex Incarnate.

<P>About.com has extensive coverage of Area 51. Another site worth trying out is ufomind.com/area51/... albeit a bit messy designwise it still is a great UFO resource.
