Area 51 has long been the site and stuff of conspiracy theories. It has been described as a magnet for Unidentified Flying Objects. Is it? This photo of an aircraft may be one of the reasons why it was thought of as such.
This flying object is actually an experimental aircraft made by the United States Air Force – one of the few aircraft created for the purpose of trying out various air carriers. Numerous similar aircrafts created by the government were seen over the southwest region further contributing to the myth of UFOs.
The Fat Man
The Fat Man is not a description of a man but a name used to describe a bomb that was eventually dropped on August 9, 1945, over the Japanese city of Nagasaki. This rare photo is a piece of history that everyone should see.
This is how the bomb looked like before it destroyed the lives of Japanese citizens, and prior to it turning Nagasaki into a heap of ashes. It also offers a glimpse of a few of the secrets of the American military.
John McCain
This is a photo taken in Vietnam at the moment when the late Senator John McCain was being taken out of the water by Vietnamese citizens right after his plane was shot down. McCain was a United States airman who was assigned to fly over Vietnam.
The moment his plane went down and crashed into a body of water in Hanoi, Vietnam, the locals saw McCain as the enemy and took him to prison. This photo was taken in 1967.
September 11 Photos From the Pentagon
This photo was recently declassified by the United States government. Look at the picture and you will realize the extent of the damage done by a commercial airplane crashing into the Pentagon on the infamous day of September 11, 2001.
This recently declassified picture from the United States government shows the extreme destruction caused by the plane as it tore through all five rings of the Pentagon – far from the damage the public was allowed to see in the media.
Secret Pacific Ocean Airbase
Also known as Johnson Atoll, this secret airbase has been considered a top-secret location. Situated right smack in the center of the Pacific Ocean, the airbase is reportedly where numerous nuclear testings occurred.
The United States government made sure it revealed very little information at the time such nuclear tests were conducted. However, these pictures were recently declassified and thus serve as evidence of the extent of the government’s efforts to create and test these destructive man-made forces.
