Mysterious Black Tower Spotted At Area 51; Is It Alien Technology?

A large black tower spotted at Area 51 on Google Maps recently has reignited conspiracy theories that there is alien technology being hidden and studied at the secretive U.S. military base. Whether that is actually true or not, we may never know.

For decades, Area 51 has been accused of secreting away UFOs and other alien technology that the U.S. government is trying to reverse engineer. Numerous alleged whistleblowers, including some who worked for the CIA, have made astounding claims about the sorts of things they say they have witnessed at the base.

The United States Air Force base, located within the Nevada Test and Training Range, is a popular topic of conspiracy theorists and internet sleuths searching for government secrets about aliens and UFOs.

One of those internet sleuths recently spotted a large, mysterious black tower near Area 51 on Google Earth. It was discovered at the coordinates 37°14’46.5″N 115°49’24.0″W on the mapping site.

As is the case anytime anything odd is spotted at Area 51, speculation about what the dark tower could be began running rampant on various social media sites like Reddit and Facebook.

“It’s one of those obelisks that kept appearing around the world few years back,” one person suggested on Reddit.

“I wouldn’t worry until they start constructing additional pylons,” someone else wrote.

“It was built between January 2005 and June 2007 and supposedly it rotates,” another commenter claimed, which may not be too far from being correct. According to DailyMail.com, the giant, dark tower actually could be used for radar cross-section (RCS) testing by the USAF.

Then again, maybe, as one Redditor suggested, it could be “one of the signal towers that the Minerva subordinate AI of Gaia would use prior to the terraforming efforts of project zero dawn to shut down the Pharoh swarm which had destroyed Earth’s biosphere. A similar one placed outside the Carja capital of Meridia would be used by the Hades subordinate AI to attempt to reactivate the Pharoh swarm before being ultimately thwarted by Aloy, a genetic clone of Gaia’s creator, Elizabet Sobek.”
