+North Truro, MA
++ In spite of quite literally everything about the surrounding environment suggesting + otherwise, this is not in fact a secret government super weapon or the home of a + villain about to be thwarted by a British secret agent. Yes, the building is backed + by a hundred foot cliff to a desolate ocean beach on one side and by an abandoned and + overgrown military complex on the other. Yes, the low shrubs and thin trees + surrounding the field are twisted and tangled and filled with thorns. And yes, the + near constant wind and fog means the landscape seems to be constantly changing around + you. But I can assure you that the enormously foreboding dome fifty feet above the + ground serves a perfectly mundane and actually quite beneficial purpose. +
+Greenville, Maine
++ A little after noon on a windy day in January of 1963 a B-52C Stratofortress strategic + bomber took off from Westover Air Force Base in Massachusetts. The flight was a + routine training mission intended to test a new low altitude approach radar system + in mountainous terrain, a technique that could provide an edge in what was then the + very real possibility of a mission in Soviet air space. Two hours into the flight the + team began the first of their simulated low altitude approaches over the south side + of Elephant Mountain in northern Maine, and about twenty minutes later disaster + struck. +
