Cape Canaveral Air Station (CCAS), FL has played a pivotal role in the American space program that began largely as a result of the Cold War. Public Laws require the United States Air Force to identify and evaluate properties under Air Force jurisdiction that are potentially eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). In 1993, CCAS's Launch Complex 26, a dual pad complex, was determined eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Launch Complex 26 is used for Cape Canaveral's Space Museum and is the home of approximately 50 military rockets and missiles on static display. This report documents on-site and archival research on the rocket and missile static displays on Launch Complex 26. It includes a history of the military space program; the history of each missile system represented by the displays; and historic and current black and white photographs.
