 | | Edwards Air Force Base (IATA: EDW, ICAO: KEDW) is a USAF airbase located on the border of Kern County and Los Angeles County, California in the Antelope Valley, 7 miles (11 km) due East of Rosamond, USA at 34°57′N 117°52′W. |
 | | The incredible results from the first track prompted the Air Force to investigate building a second, and in 1948 a new 10,000 ft (3,048 m) track was completed just south of Rogers Lake. |
 | | Air Force Plant 42 and other defense research facilities in Palmdale are located only a few miles south of Edwards. |
