	Baikonur Cosmodrome (NIIP-5/GIK-5)
		Since 1964, the NIIP-5 test range in Tyuratam was responsible for testing of the R-36-O ballistic missiles, whose warheads would reach the orbit on its way to the target.
		The remaining launch facilities for the N-1 rocket were rebuilt for the new Energia-Buran system with the addition of some monumental infrastructure, including a brand-new processing building, a full-scale test-firing stand, a "skyscraper" for vertical vibration tests and a super-long landing strip for the Buran orbiter.
		Ironically, Tyuratam means "arrow burial ground" in the local language.

		As its commander Sergei Alekseenko remembers (51) in an hour after arrival, he and his personnel boarded trucks and traveled for about two and half hours into the steppe, where they were dropped and left only with their backpacks and one-day rations of water and food.
		A pair of 1,000-cubical-meter reservoirs and a pair of 3,000-cubical-meter reservoirs were built farther north along the road to the launch complex, and, finally, three 3,000-cubical-meter underground water tanks were built just south of the launch pad.
		By the end of 1955, 20 military units were deployed in Tyuratam and its population continued to grow, however, for several years many facilities of the range had remained understaffed.

		It was originally built by the Soviets and is now under Russian regulation, although located in Kazakhstan.
		It is situated about 200 km to the east of the Aral Sea, on the north bank of the Syr Darya, near the town of Tyuratam, in the south-central part of the country.
		The name Baikonur was chosen to intentionally mislead the West as to the actual location of the site by suggesting that the site was near Baikonur, a mining town about 320 km northeast of the space centre in the desert area near Dzhezkazgan.

		However, it eventually was overtaken by Baikonur as launch campaigns were transferred to newer space boosters at Tyuratam.
		In 1957, the launch site was said to be near Tyuratam in Kazakhstan, about 230 miles southwest of Baikonur.

		At the beginning of the space race between the USA and the USSR, the USAF wanted a way of monitoring the telemetry that was broadcast during Soviet space launches from the IRBM facility at Kasputin Yar and the space center at Tyuratam.
		One solution was to have an aircraft packed with electronic sensors to fly at a high altitude near these facilities during these Soviet launches, intercepting and recording the electronic telemetry for later analysis by US experts.
		During the missile flights, the missions were flown at as high an altitude as possible in order to obtain the clearest reception of the telemetry.
