Does All the US Launches Take Place at the Kennedy Space Center?
No. The Kennedy Space Center (KSC) is now managing the Shuttle flights and landings only (after it had managed the Apollo program). The other, unmanned, civilian or military, US programs launch either from the “Cape Canaveral Air Force Station” (CCAFS), neighbour to the KSC, or from the Vandenberg AFB, Calif., 150 miles northwest of Los Angeles, both of which are U.S. Air Force assets.
