District 51 is not the only place to hide secret national activities. In the world, there are many secret military bases on the planet that few people know about.
Yongbyon Nuclear Science Research Center
This is a large North Korean nuclear facility, located in Yongbyon district, 103 km north of Pyongyang. It was built in 1979 but until 1985 BTT announced the existence of this reactor. On July 18, 2007, the IAEA confirmed that all nuclear facilities in Yongbyon were closed. In return, North Korea will receive 50,000 tons of fuel oil support through the six-party talks. By April 2009, Pyongyang officially boycotted the round of talks, claiming it had resumed its activity to regenerate used fuel rods to produce plutons .
Pine Gap Military Base
Pine Gap Military Base, located southeast of Alice Springs, central Australia, was built in 1967 after the Pine Gap military and intelligence agreement signed between the Australian and US governments.
This military zone has a series of underground works deep underground, among them the Center for receiving and processing signals from the 5,600m2 satellite is located 20m deep underground.However, Pine Gap's heart is a nuclear power plant , also deep underground, producing energy not only to supply the entire Pine Gap base, in case of an enemy attacked, but also energized the US Navy's nuclear submarines .While present for a long time on Australian territory, the government does not have control over Pine Gap's operations, except for sharing the intelligence information collected by Pine Gap.
To protect the Pine Gap base, the US Department of Defense has built up to two 4-meter-high metal fence fences, military-day patrol roads with two companies of 160 soldiers used up to 10. Combat helicopters from the air and ground.
Al Kibar nuclear facility
Al Kibar is suspected of being a secret Syrian nuclear facility located in a remote desert area of the country.Israeli intelligence seized information about the secret operations here after stealing data from a laptop of a high-ranking Syrian official.The head of Syria asserts that Al Kibar is just a common military area.They actively invited IAEA inspectors to inspect.However, a German newspaper cited intelligence sources as having a nuclear reactor in Al-Kibar built under a joint project between Iran, Syria and North Korea.Iran used this makeshift reactor to build a nuclear bomb before mass production in Iran.
ECHELON center at Menwith Hill
The United States National Security Agency (NSA) is the world's largest intelligence gathering agency.Although known as the organization with the largest number of working mathematicians, the largest number of supercomputers, but information about the NSA is almost unknown until the early years of the 21st century.
For a long time, even the NSA existed not officially recognized by the US government.The NSA along with its equivalent agencies in the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand is said to have operated a system called ECHELON .
This system is suspected of being able to monitor the majority of the world's telephone, fax and civil data flows.ECHELON's most important center is located at a station of the British Royal Air Force (RAF) at Menwith Hill.
Bushehr Atomic Energy Plant
Is a secret nuclear energy development facility in the Middle East region.Much of the information about Iran's Bushehr nuclear power operations remains limited to foreign countries.Since the operation of the plant, it has been suspected of being able to produce nuclear materials used to make nuclear weapons.Iran has been under pressure from the IAEA and the international community for allowing a comprehensive inspection, but the second largest oil producer in OPEC has vehemently denied Western accusations that the country This is seeking to develop nuclear weapons and that Tehran only wants to produce electricity.
Negev Nuclear Research Center
Located in the middle of Israel 's Negev desert, this nuclear research facility was built in 1958, but its existence and operation has never been confirmed by the Israeli government.Israel also rejected all requests for access to this area by the International Atomic Energy Agency IAEA, but allowed the US to conduct inspections.In 1986, an employee who worked in the Negev revealed to the press about the activities that were going on at the center, and also that he became a wanted and imprisoned subject of the government.

Like Cheyenne, Site R is designed to be self-sufficient for 30 days after a nuclear attack.It is noteworthy that mobile phones and GPS devices cannot operate near the Site R base. This indicates that a system prevents people in the base zone from communicating or coordinating in the vicinity. close.
