About this map

Edwards Air Force Base dominates this 1970s landscape, serving as the critical hub for the Air Force Flight Test Center. The expansive dry bed of Rogers Lake provides a natural foundation for specialized aeronautical infrastructure, including a massive Compass Rose, a designated Speed Course, and a Fly-By Line. These features, alongside the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory facility in the northwest corner, underscore the area's role as a primary site for Cold War-era aerospace development and experimental aviation.
