We are told that it's a Top Secret Research Facility.
Nobody can doubt the "top secret" part.
It's the second part that opens the speculation.
Top Secret means that you need a Top Secret pass to get in. The workers are just highly skilled engineers from Lockheed, stop bothering them!
No aliens in Area 51! It is Lockheed's test area! Leave it alone! Why can't you people understand that?
Lockheed builds aircraft, Area 51 is owned by Lockheed, Area 51 has a lot of new plane being tested there. They don't want their data stolen, so they
build their buildings on government/military soil, does that stop people from going there? No! They also hire EG&G personal for protection, does that
stop people, a little. Lockheed had plans stolen from them by Boeing once, now they increased security and gave their workers an 'oath.' Now stop
trying to make us break that oath!
