The problem is the myths of Area 51 are hard to dispute if no one can speak on the record about what actually happened there.

Urban legend has it that Area 51 is connected by underground tunnels and trains to other secret facilities around the country.

Area 51 is located in southern Nevada desert about 75 miles north of Las Vegas. It's set inside a greater land parcel that's about the size of the state of Connecticut that's called the 'Nevada Test and Training Range.'

As far as I know, all the presidents know about Area 51. It would almost be impossible for them not to.

The idea that Area 51 was this test facility working to move science and technology faster and further than any other nation is true and is one of the great hallmarks of Area 51. There are other areas of the base that are controversial - but they both exist simultaneously - out there in the desert.
