>... at Area 51 (their airfield for testing experimental aircraft)
I'm Canadian but that reminded of some relatives who sent a video of a birthday party. They were outside and a big booming noise could be heard and they all looked to see what it was.
I didn't think much of it since it was hard to hear other than a sort of jet sound but they lived there and seemed to think it was different or unusual in some way.
They lived in Apple Valley in the "high desert" (I didn't know what that meant) years later I found out Area 51 is pretty close.
I don't beleive in aliens but it was interesting to know the video had a mysterious aircraft and Area 51 in it.
- goodcanadian 11y agoI doubt it was anything Area 51 related. They have a large highly restricted airspace over Nevada to fly around in. However, Apple Valley is even closer to Edwards Air Force Base which has a long history of flight test including things like Chuck Yeager's supersonic flight, and for that matter the Virgin Galactic spaceship: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwards_Air_Force_Base https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwards_Air_Force_Base Many interesting things like the B-2 and the space shuttle were also produced in Palmdale (to the west of Apple Valley). You often see interesting things flying around that area. EDIT: Virgin Galactic has nothing directly to do with Edwards, but they test in that airspace.
