1956 Map of Rogers Lake

About this map

Edwards Air Force Base and the Air Force Flight Test Center dominate this mid-century landscape in the Antelope Valley. The transition from the high desert terrain of the Bissell Hills and Rosamond Hills to the flat, expansive surfaces of Rogers Lake and Buckhorn Lake highlights why this location became essential for aerospace development. Early aeronautical infrastructure is visible through the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics facility and various control towers.
