Yes, well spotted; I fixed and clarified that, and added some more info. A marginally better map is at [1], which also shows another test complex that I'll have to investigate. I think the eastern margin of the STS is formed by the Chagan (Shagan) River (and I believe than the Shagan River site was/is a site used extensively for missile testing). Maps and texts (particularly english ones) are pretty hard to come by for this whole area, so I'd very much welcome input and clarification about the site and its geography. I have the original Inkscape file used to create the maps, so I can fix and augment them as necessary. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 16:41, July 10, 2005 (UTC)
