Satellite images from Maxar Technologies have revealed that China is building a secret airport in Xinjiang.
China’s secret airbase shown in satellite images
Amidst the ongoing tension along the Ladakh border with India, China is rapidly developing a secret air base at Lop Nur in Xinjiang. The information about this airbase is so confidential that it has been named Area-51 of China on the lines of the secret Area-51 located in America. This airbase is located at a distance of just 1300 km from Leh Air Base in India. Recent photos taken by a satellite have shown that China has been developing this airport rapidly since 2016.
Experts believe that China is planning to increase military space activities from this airport. American NGO media organization NPR has shared many information related to this secret Chinese airport based on satellite images of Maxar Technologies. These pictures show that China has started developing this airbase that has been deserted for years. The airstrip at this base is 4.8 km long, so that even large ships and spacecraft can easily land here.
China has got the space plane landed at the secret airbase!
More than a dozen concrete under-construction buildings have been seen near Xinjiang’s Lop Nur airstrip. However, there is no information about any house or other facilities at this secret airbase so far. Let us tell you that Loop Noor is the oldest nuclear test site in China. In 2020, several observers claimed that China landed a high-class space plane at this airport. However, no one is aware of what this Chinese space plane looks like.
China preparing to do something big at the airbase
Apart from the landing of Chinese space plane in September last year, no significant activity has been seen on this runway. Modular trailers can be seen at one end of this airbase. It is expected that this will be a temporary accommodation for the employees of the Chinese Air Force. But now the increasing activity at the airbase is a sign that China is preparing to do something big here.
What is America’s Top Secret Area-51?
It is said about Area-51 that this American government has kept aliens hidden from the world here. However, no one knows what its truth is yet. But the point to be noted here is that at first the US government denied the existence of Area-51, then later accepted it. Some experts say that the government tests UFOs in Area-51. The government has banned the movement of common people in Area-51.
