I tire of people refering to that base as "Area 51." Groom Lake AFB is located in area 51 of the Nevada Test Range.

These bombers will work greatly with the plans of a space catapult like device our military has planned...

What, its not "Groom Lake AFB" Its an experimental aircraft section of a much larger base called Nellis AFB. Its in an area of the base, number 51. There are other numbbered areas, thats where the name came from. It is a toipsecret part of the base, a large base that covers about the landmass of switzerland. Its used to train pilots: Red Flag, Green flag ect, and also used for regualr white experimental craft. In another area of the base (Tonopah Test Range) the classified F-117 was first operationally stationed. If any secret plane were operational, cchanses are it would be there.

its irrelevant to anything previously posted in this thread.
If the technology is there and this place is so well known to the public, why hasn't anyone tried to infiltrate this area? So what its a base...it's out in the middle of no where get some snipers a few ninjas and a good old fashion base ball bat
Was that a bad joke?
I've never heard of a space catapult?
ChrisRT
No! This is real stuff!!! You didn�t hear of it? It, along with other planned systems where discussed a month ago...
They are called space-based kinetic energy weapons called hypervelocity rod bundles. It is just 1 of the many projects the USAF has demanded be developed.

True, but people have been reporting the "TR-3B" and other possibly fantastical aircraft for years. Why hasn't the government used it/them yet? What's the point of just flying them around in nevada for people to complain about? And if so many people "know" about them, why doesn't the government just come clean? A: they don't exist, or B: I can't think of a good one here.
oh, "Rods from God", yeah i know all about that, i just never heard of it referred to as a Space Catapult.
Most disaprove of this because they dont like the idea of "Weaponization of Space", I believe its allready weaponized, I would like to have that capability to strike anywhere in the world within 15 minutes.
Space if the Final Frontier, the ultimate high ground, its innevitable that its going to be used for war, so I want America go be farther ahead then all other countries.
