Area 51 has become a cultural phenomenon thanks to decades of conspiracy theories connecting the base to UFOs, aliens, and experimental aircraft testing.

The small earthquake was detected at 2:11 a.m. PST Monday morning .

The USGS says the quake struck 32 miles southeast of Beatty that sits about 60 miles from the military facility.

Area 51 is not accessible by the public and is even off-limits to regular military air traffic.

I think it's the number one tourist attraction in the whole country or something. Area 51 in Las Vegas .'.
