Omkring halvdelen af delstatens arial ejes eller anvendes af forbundsregeringen hovedsageligt til militære formål - specielt atmosfæriske og underjordiske atomvåbenforsøg, herunder baserne Edwards Air Force Base med Area 51, Nellis Air Force Base nu Nevada Test and Training Range i North Las Vegas, samt, ikke mindst Nevada Test Site, også kaldet Area 52.

Abstract Paleoseismic trenching and fault surface trace mapping indicate that the Olinghouse fault zone, a northeast trending, left-lateral strike-slip fault located in the northern Walker Lane, Nevada, has been the source of multiple latest Pleistocene and Holocene surface-rupturing earthquakes.

A History of the Tonopah Area and Adjacent Region of Central Nevada, 1827-1941. / : Nye County History Project
- https://archive.org/details/AHistoryOfTheTonopahAreaAndAdjacentRegionOfCentralNevada1827-1941.
In the spring of 1942 a lovely young woman born and raised in the small central Nevada mining camp of Round Mountain submitted her master's thesis to the history department at the University of Nevada in Reno. It was an authoritative account of the history of the Tonopah/Round Mountain region of central Nevada between 1827 and 1942. In writing her thesis, Lucile Berg drew upon three essential sources of historical information: existing published works, old local newspapers, and interview with individuals having firsthand knowledge of the area's vigorous past. Her thesis is a classic that remains to this day the best general source on the history of central Nevada up to 1942.

Occupy Beale AFB No Drones
- http://www.occupybealeafb.org/
Beale AFB, near Marysville, California, is home of the Global Hawk Drone, a surveillance drone that assists in finding targets for Predator and Reaper weaponized drones. Surveillance drones fly from Beale AFB to gather data used to direct assassinations by other drones in foreign countries. This terrorizes and often kills innocent civilians.
