Edwards AFB to Open Public Viewing Area for Possible Shuttle Landing. EDWARDS AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. â Edwards Air Force Base is planning to open its public viewing area on the east shore of Rogers Dry Lake Thursday and Friday for persons wishing to watch a potential landing of Space Shuttle Discovery. The Discovery is scheduled to land Wednesday at Kennedy Space Center, Fla.
Edwards became a test pilot in 1943 and spent much of his time at Muroc Army Air Field, on California's high desert, testing wide varieties of experimental prototype aircraft. He died in the crash of a Northrop YB-49 flying wing near Muroc AFB on 5 June 1948. The base is next to Rogers Dry Lake, an endorheic desert salt pan whose hard dry lake surface provides a natural extension to Edwards' runways.
