Rachel, NV
Rachel, Nevada considers itself “The UFO Capital of
the World”. The delightfully oddball town is the nearest town to the secret
aircraft testing facility at Groom Lake which is about 25 miles south of Rachel
better known as “Area 51”. In 1976, the Governor renamed Nevada’s Route 375 to
The Extraterrestrial Highway.
The military built their facility there and in the
1950s it was the perfect place to test experimental spy planes which some locals
mistook for alien spacecraft—or so they say.
