Thankfully NO! Rosamond is 15 miles south of Mojave Spaceport that's in the
town of Mojave, and is just west of the westen edge of Edwards AFB. There is a cross up on a hill top, but it is not lighted, for reasons of flights in and out of Edwards AFB. This trailer park I live in, the owner has wanted for years to make it bigger, but because of the rules Edwards has put down, there's no way he can do it. Palm Springs is over 100 miles to the east by south east of rosamond . Where I live I can see the Spaceship 1 flights from Mojave (or the coming super sized spaceship flights) that's north, and from DUE West I can watch the rocket launchs from VBAFB and if I hear about the test, I can see the rocket engine tests from the rocket engine test stands on the hilltops of Edwards AFB. Oh ya, BTW. if anyone ever wants to see the Roton Test Rocket, it is now on display full time on Mojave Spaceport near or by the Admit buildings. -- There are those who believe that life here, began out there, far across the universe, with tribes of humans, who may have been the forefathers of the Egyptians, or the Toltechs, or the Mayans. Some believe that they may yet be brothers of man, who even now fight to survive, somewhere beyond the heavens.

Is this anywhere near you?
http://www.thedesertsun.com/apps/pbc...WS01/612090325 It's near me. About 10 miles away but not in direct view of where i live. I don't care for it. The cross in years passed has always annoyed me. I've not seen it at night since the lighting change. ..Florian Palm Springs, Calif. |
