Conspiracy theorists claim that there are flying saucers and alien corpses inside Hangar 18 at the US Air Force Base. And there’s even a sealed, guarded room where physical evidence from the infamous Roswell plane crash is kept, the /span>. Writes the Daily Star
UFO believers argue that the US Air Force base is a secret haven for wreckage from the famous Roswell plane crash, alien bodies, flying saucers and more.
Hangar 18 has been rumored to be involved in extraterrestrial activity since the 1940s. It is assumed that even living aliens could hide there.
All of this is supposedly stored in a sealed, guarded room called the Blue Room, inspired by Project Blue Book, which was the US government’s official investigation into dozens of UFO sightings.
Most theories surrounding Hangar 18 have to do with the Roswell plane crash. In 1947, the army issued a press release stating that a “flying saucer” had been found that had crashed nearby, as reported by The Sun.
However, a subsequent statement was released by the Fort Worth Air Force Base, Texas, refuting the previous report, which claimed that a weather balloon had crashed to the ground.
Later, in 1994, authorities acknowledged that a Cold War spy device had crashed in Roswell, but this did little to appease conspiracy theorists.
UFO believers believe that the wreckage after the crash was transported to Hangar 18, where it remains to this day.
This belief stems from reports from former base pilots. In particular, Oliver Henderson told about this, that he confessed to his wife that he was flying in a plane loaded with UFO debris from Roswell. The American also shared that he was carrying several small alien bodies.
Another story comes from the children of World War II veteran Marion ‘Black Mac’ Macgruder. They claim their father told them he saw a living alien at the Ohio base in 1947.
It is alleged that he told his family that “it was shameful that the military destroyed this creature by carrying out tests on it”.
Republican Senator Barry Goldwater also claimed that he attempted to break into the so-called Blue Room in the early 1960s, but was stopped by General Wright-Patterson.
In 1974, science fiction writer Robert Spencer Carr claimed that the military kept “two flying saucers of unknown origin” inside the hangar, the Tampa Tribune reported.
Additionally, he noted that he had a high-ranking source in the military who saw 12 alien bodies operated on at the base. His statement inspired a 1980 film called Hangar 18.
The government and the Air Force have always vehemently denied rumors about the base.
