I am pretty sure that is all SSFL land around there. Which is not good because back in 70's that land was owned by "Rocketdyne" which was a Rockwell Corporation that built engines used in the Saturn V rocket. There is still alot of conflict over the land because Rocketdyne didnt properly dispose of nuclear waste material which contaminated the surrounding soil.
Years later after Rocketdyne was sold off to Boeing. The field laboratory was condensed in size and they slowly began building homes all around the area and the local community college. After a few more years, local residence as well as SSFL workers started to develop sorts of cancer. The soil still tested positive for dangerous level of radiation and the clean up efforts are still going on today. Thats why that big chunk of land is undeveloped... kind of interesting! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_S...t_over_cleanup |

What SSFL land are you talking about? I work up there and don't know of any airstrips, abandoned or otherwise, in the area.
BTW... the "everybody dying of cancer" thing is a crock. Quote:

Seriously, this thread is awesome. Very cool find with a possibly intense historical background (still trying to figure out wtf drove you guys to go back there, lol), multiple awesome quotes, and the coolest OP ever.
God bless you good sir. Go big or go home.

Absolutely hostile.
You promise us police chases, abandoned air strips, possible nuclear weapons and felony charges. You come back with nothing months later. Thats like a handjob when you want to bang. |
