Missile Row

Missile Row was a nickname given to the US Air Force and NASA launch complexes at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (CCAFS) in the 1960s. Operated by the 45th Space Wing of the U.S. Air Force, it was the site of all pre-Apollo 8 manned launches, as well as many other early Department of Defense (DoD) and NASA launches. For the DoD, it plays a secondary role to Vandenberg AFB in California, but is the launch site for many NASA unmanned space probes, as those spacecraft are typically launched on Air Force launchers. Active launch vehicles are in bold.

Much of the support activity for CCAFS occurs at Patrick Air Force Base to the south, its reporting base.
