Large SRB test site in Florida
Turns out a friend has been there. He worked for a guy who had a
contract to make some sounding rockets for NASA. They visited
the site as a possible manufacturing location.
The only use being made of it at the time was the cops had a
target range in one building.
The rockets they made were solid fuel, with a nitrous oxide tank
on top. They topped it off as it boiled until just before ignition.
I got to sit in the control room at Wallops Island during one launch.
