What do you think about the Area 51?

Well i don't think it's a alien landing site. My first impression and gut feeling based on 2 r observation is that this is possibly the site where they faked one or many of the moon landing.

My first impression of this comes from the first time i heard about the moon hoax landing. I went to the photography that was made available. it depicted an astronaut standing on the moon. I realize that that image was light by a artificial light. The first signs of artificial light is a occurrence called light fall off which is due to the distance of the light to the subject. In the physics of light this would be called the inverse square law "Light intensity falls off rapidly with distance from its source. Which says the intensity varies with the square of the flash-to-subject distance, this way: The closer the subject the brighter the person and in the same idea the farthest the darker or less expose the subject." looking at the back of this image there is a obvious effect of light falloff due to the inverse square law.

when you stand in the street with ambient light on you and you take a meter reading of yourself and let say a friend 20 blocks away at the same time. you will get the same number (exposure) you can probably do many kilometers without the light being different. The sun is so powerful that that the light fall off doesn't occur on earth. "Sunshine is light, but it is quite special (due only to our own local situation). Sunshine does of course work exactly according to the inverse square law too. Yet sunshine seems very different, and actually appears NOT to work that way. This is simply because we are 93 million miles from the Sun, and another few miles to yonder mountain we see here on Earth is a totally insignificant difference. Even the 240,000 miles to the Moon is insignificant (1/4 of 1%), so the astronauts could use the same Sunny 16 rule there that we use here."

the second occurrence of this is when i went to the Ottawa National Gallery for the exhibit Manufactured Landscapes a few years back. It was a collection of artists and their interpretation of man made landscapes through the destruction of the earth. I came across these 2 photograph that were taken from the desert in Nevada. These are images from the moon and images from nuclear testing sites.



based on these 2 separate observation, the I think that i Area 51 is probably an area of the fake moon landing. There was once a myth buster episode on the proof that it was real and they "debunked the hoax theory". Usually from what understand in science. You must reproduce the setting if you are going to test it. they did not reproduce the actual situation and without knowing proved that images such as the moon landing can be done in a studio. here is a few things they did that negates their debunking

  • their cameras were mounted on tripods - in the moon "landing" the astronaut were supposedly strapped to their bodies. This brings a whole set of questions regarding those 2 1/4 camera those camera are difficult to operate on earth without gloves ( you need to focus, crank the shutter, advance the film , do your aperture setting at least once (those cameras unlike SLR , who do it, automatically require you to do 2 thing crank the shutter back and than advance the film).
  • on MB they use a digital backs as oppose to film. Film and digital react differently. digital will have a larger acceptance of zones (based on Ensel Adams zone system. This difference makes a huge difference to a test if you are trying to duplicate the setting.
  • the only thing that they prove without actually knowing is that the scene was light by an artificial light which actually mimic the light effects of the real photos. they should have use regular day light since in the moon the light. At night if you take a spot reading of the moon at 100 iso you will get 500 at f/8. that is like day light on earth in the afternoon)

    hope this helps you to keep asking more questions
