Development: Not the Coyote Canyon near Borrego Springs

The United Technologies Coyote Canyon test site was just south of San Jose, CA. My best guess from 50 years ago is 37.230 deg N, 121.705 deg W. We could see the plume and hear the rumble from 27 miles away near Stanford. Probably a reference exists somewhere in the San Jose Mercury newspaper archives. I will edit the article here if I find a credible source. Rairden (talk) 06:25, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This test site is applicable to all UA120 solid fuel strap-on variants used with Titan IIIC, Titan IIID, Titan IIIE, Titan 34D, and Titan IV rockets. Pioneers in Propulsion, A History of CSD Pratt & Whitney’s Solid Rocket Company Rairden (talk) 02:15, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure where that paper would fit, but it seems like it could/should go in the article somewhere. Just in case, here's a formatted citation for it: Chase, Charles A. (2010). Pioneers in Propulsion—A History of CSD Pratt & Whitney's Solid Rocket Company (PDF). 46th AIAA/ASME/SAE/ASEE Joint Propulsion Conference & Exhibit. 25-28 July 2010. Nashville, Tennessee. doi:10.2514/6.2010-6909.
