YES! I saw it on the discovery channel! Their employees have to be flown into the area on a private jet everyday. They tried to ask a former employee about their job and they got VERY agitated and called the police. It's crazy! Now is what we don't 100% know is real or not is if a UFO/Aliens were ever there. But yes, there is an area 51, as all of America has numbered areas. Try and watch the doc on Discovery sometime....it's REALLY interesting!

Area 51 is a remote tract of land in the southwestern portion of Lincoln County in southern Nevada, located at 37.239° N 115.816° W, at the southern edge of a large dry salt flat called Groom Lake. It lies within the Nevada Test and Training Range and is owned by the United States Department of Defense and the United States Air Force. Area 51 contains an airfield whose primary purpose is believed to be the operation and analysis of enemy aircraft and weapons systems, and secret development and testing of new military aircraft. Area 51 is the frequent subject of UFO conspiracy theories.
Additionally, Area 51 is a light gun arcade game issued by Atari Games in 1995. It takes its name from the Area 51 military facility. (There's also a ton of other pc/video games called Area 51.)

I was in security ops for Nat. Intelligence. Yes there is an area 51. I can not speculate on what is done there, but I will mention that there is a particular law suite launched recently
and has to do with soil and water contamination, and exposure . The area has long been known for testing arsenal, and tactical, and experimental aircraft. The whole "Alien" thing remains a mystery.

There is indeed. Area 51 is an air force base in Nevada. You can actually use Google Earth or NASA WorldWind to take a look at satellite photos of the base - it does really exist though.

Certainly there is an Area 51. For many Earth years I have been visiting it on certain auspicious occasions for refreshment, usually when the crop circles need refirbishing or the large aquatic region near Florida needs recharging with more ions of the Gladnap complex.

It is true. It is in Nevada in the Groom Lake area.
