LC-40

During the press conference of today (the one about the announcement of the Ares name), NASA mentioned LC-40 for Ares... Hektor 18:59, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'll add it. It seems to be all over the place, it's the fourth pad that has been linked to it. --GW_Simulations_{|User Page | Talk | Contribs | E-mail} 19:18, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Launch Complex 31

Article says it is used as a burial vault for the Space Shuttle Challenger? Is there a Citation for this? The Space Shuttle Challenger Article does not confirm this? Exit2DOS2000^•T•C• 03:13, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Looking South Photograph

This afternoon, I was on the Kennedy Space Center "Now and Then" tour and I am a resident of Brevard County. This Photograph shows the Ocean on the right side, so geographically the view is from the South towards the North. I recommend editing this title to "looking north".

With regard to a citation for the use of SLC#31 as the burial ground for the space shuttle. The Tour guide stopped the bus and explained this usage for SLC#31.

Is 39A now inactive?

Since there are no more shuttle launches, should 39A be considered inactive? user:mnw2000 02:21, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

LC-49

Should LC-49 be removed from the table? SpaceX seems to be interested in SLC-37 instead now: https://arstechnica.com/space/2024/02/spacex-wants-to-take-over-a-florida-launch-pad-from-rival-ula/2/

Patti Bielling, a NASA spokesperson, told Ars on Friday the agency is no longer working on Launch Complex 49. "At this time, there are no activities involving LC-49 on Kennedy," Bielling said. "Any previous activities regarding LC-49 were suspended, and no actions were taken." Spookywooky2 (talk) 13:34, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Potential renames of Missile Row sites?

I've been looking through old articles and whatnot about the Space Force leasing out LC-15, 14, and 13, and I noticed that they refer to the pads by Space Launch Complex rather than the old Launch Complex name. I guess we should consider renaming the pads (and their corresponding pages) to be SLC-14 and SLC-13? It does have merit seeing as LC-20 on here got the rename when Firefly got the lease for the pad.

What are your thoughts?

EDIT: I now extend it to all of the missile row pads, as I saw a [space force doc] that refers to the pads from 34 to 1/2/3/4 as Space Launch Complex.
