Extractions: Map of White Sands Test Center White Sands Missile Range covers about 3,200 square miles of south central New Mexico. The callup areas are lands either privately owned or controlled by state and federal agencies. White Sands has contracts with ranchers in these areas which allow the range to evacuate the residents for up to 12 hours a few times a year for some tests. The ranchers are paid a yearly payment and travel expenses each time they evacuate. When utilized the call-up areas add about 2,500 square miles for the range's temporary use. It is approximately 115 miles from Stallion Gate to the Main Post. (Taken from this link Starbright Project

Extractions: TO TEST ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY MATERIALS, COMPONENTS HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif., July 11, 1996 Advanced technology components will be put to the test during the 2:30 p.m., MDT, Friday, July 12 flight test of the NASA-McDonnell Douglas vertical-takeoff, vertical-landing rocket at the U.S. Army White Sands Missile Range, N.M. "DC-X and DC-XA flight tests are unlike any other launch vehicle test programs, and more closely resemble an aircraft flight test program," said David Schweikle, Delta Clipper-Experimental Advanced (DC-XA) program manager. "Each flight becomes increasingly more complex as the flight envelope is expanded." During Friday's flight the rocket's nose will make a sweeping motion as it rotates from an upright position. By performing an angle-of-attack sweep of 50 degrees engineers will be able to evaluate dynamic forces on the test vehicle. "Ground tests and computer simulations can provide us with valuable data about the performance of the launch vehicle, but nothing can match up to the real-world dynamic conditions of flight tests," said Schweikle. Additional tests during the flight will include aeroflap actuation and differential throttling of the Clipper Graham's four engines. The aeroflaps are located near the base of the cone-shaped rocket and can be used to control flight.
