Law enforcement sources in Nevada, where Area 51 is located, said that local law enforcement agencies are aware of a potential raid on the secretive military base.
A viral Facebook event said that has signed up more than 1 million people to “storm Area 51,” as “they can’t stop all of us,” appears to be a joke. Organizers and attendees are hoping to learn about alleged UFOs and captured aliens, or secretive military technology housed at the U.S. Air Force Base that’s also known as “Groom Lake” or “Homey Airport.”
