Edwards Air Force Base dominates this high-desert landscape in the early 1970s, illustrating the expansion of the Air Force Flight Test Center across the dry lakebeds of the Antelope Valley. The flat expanses of Buckhorn Lake and Rogers Lake serve as natural runways, while a grid of rural avenues and specialized infrastructure like the Observation Tower, Test Track, and Tracking Station mark the site's military significance.
