I heard that from all the nuke testing (reason for the name area 51, the land was broken down into area's and named by number), the rad. would not be good to work in and messed up the computers and related equipment.

Just watched episode 5 of Taken (Steven Spielberg).
I think there was a lot more going on there.

The reason NASA has gone so far down hill, is because our real space program is kept under wraps. Can anybody say interstellar space travel? Where do you think they get all the footage for movies like Star Wars? We're already out there. I mean, come on! Where do you think all the aliens came from in the movie "Men In Black?" People kill me sometimes.

You guys are too funny !!!!!!!!! 
Regardless, the site is there and is probably still being used to this day. More cautiously but still being used. The governments have way too much **** that is secret these days and I would love for someone to open up a can on them and spill the beans.

I didn't realize their was any debate if it exists - it does exist. I thought the debated centered on what they did at this base.
Way back when, the USGS sectioned off the western states by grid pattern and named the Areas 1, 2, 3, etc... The Dept of Defense came in, decided they liked this one 'Area' and moved the few people that were there out. The area they choose was Area 51. Not really and different than the Section, Township, and Range now used in most of the country to define property boundaries, except much larger.
