Cape Canaveral Air Force Station Launch Complex 36

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cape Canaveral Air Force Station Launch Complex 36 (LC-36) is a launch complex at Cape Canaveral, Merritt Island, Florida. The complex was used for the Atlas rocket between 1962 and 2005. It is currently assigned to the SpaceX Falcon launch vehicles, however a Falcon launch from Cape Canaveral is yet to be confirmed.

The complex consists of two pads, LC-36A and B. Notably, the complex was the launch site for the Pioneer, Surveyor, and Mariner probes.
