 
Training device ensures safety
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif -- A training model of a ballistic acuator sits on a specially designed dolly in buidling 8415 here. The training model, built by Vandenberg's Training Device Design and Engineering Center, allows mechanics to see a cutaway view of the actuator. This helps them to more safely dismantle the device for refurbishing. (U.S. Air Force photo/Airman 1st Class Andrew Lee)

Minotaur IV
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif -- A Peacekeeper Minotaur IV rocket is in its last stages of assembly. Minotaur IVs much like this one will be launched from Vandenberg in an effort to place smaller payloads in space at a smaller price. The program spawns from the ICBM program that spawned during the Cold War. The reuse of the rockets estimates a $70 million difference per launch.(Courtesy Photo)
