LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Former Nevada Sen. Harry Reid is opening up about Area 51.

In an article for the New York Times, Reid says he saw a lot of classified stuff at the site that fascinated him.

The former senator helped to secure funding for a Pentagon program that investigates UFO reports.

Reid says there is much that can be disclosed to the public that wouldn't harm national security.
