White Sands Launch Complex 36
White Sands Launch Complex 36 (LC-36) is a site at White Sands Missile Range used for launches of the IX and Black Brant 9CM1. It was also used from May 1964 and January 1966 to launch the Little Joe 2 rocket for the Apollo Program.[1]
The complex continues to be used as one of the primary launch sites for NASA's sounding rocket program, along with those at Wallops Flight Facility. [2][3][4]
