Ely ( , rhyming with "freely") is the largest city and county seat of White Pine County, Nevada, United States. Ely was founded as a stagecoach station along the Pony Express and Central Overland Route. Ely's mining boom came later than the other towns along US 50, with the discovery of copper in 1906. Though the railroads connecting the First Transcontinental Railroad to the mines in Austin and Eureka have long been removed, the railroad to Ely is preserved as a heritage railway by the Nevada Northern Railway and known as the Ghost Train of Old Ely. As of the 2000 census, the population was 4,041.

From www.kolotv.com ELY, NV - Visit Roswell, New Mexico, even Rachel, Nevada, a stop on Nevada's Extraterrestrial Highway,and you'll find both proudly claim a spot in UFO history. You won't find that in Ely, Nevada, but maybe you should. If you google Ely and UFO you'll immediately find a link to flying saucer legend and lore. It appears in every listing of a supposed crash of an unidentified flying object. Nearly six decades ago, it is claimed a UFO crashed near Ely. That's nearly the whole story. You'll find a date: August 14, 1952 and 16 bodies recovered. That's the highest body count claimed for any UFO crash anywhere by the way. Both claims consistent on all listings, but no other details. We first heard this story in November when we journeyed to Ely chasing the claims of fresh sightings in eastern Nevada. Out of curiousity we started looking for more. We weren't the first. A few years ago Kent Harper of the Ely Times came across the same reference and asked his readers if any could shed any light on the account. He didn't get a lot of feedback. Years later, he says, he hasn't learned much more. "I even went down to Rachel and talked with some folks down there," he says, "but it just seems to have been on the internet forever and no one adds to it, no one deletes from it." Harper wouldn't have found any clues in the files of his own paper. We checked the microfilm on the Ely Times from August of 1952 in three different libraries with the same result. The issue from <b>...</b>

original url www.examiner.com A senior news reporter at a Nevada television station reported from the isolated town of Ely on multiple UFO reports, according to a press release from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON). MUFON's international Director of Public Relations, Mark Easter, made a presentation in Ely recently in search of additional witnesses to recent sightings. Many more people in this region turned out for the event and more reports were collected, according to the release. Ed Pierce reports for KOLO News. The mainstream media has been faulted by American ufolgoists in past decades for not reporting significant UFO sightings, making fun of witness testimony, or badly covering reports. Easter commends this reporting as serious and on-target.
