A slight change in subject here, but how does Wallops Island fit into all
this? I understand they have an unmanned lauch facility there as well...

It got started as a place where the Langley researchers could launch small
rockets for flight experiments. It eventually acquired a small orbital
capability with the Scout launcher.

It also houses downlink facilities for NOAA; or so all the signs said
when I visited...
