The titan missile museum is a relic of the cold war.
The museum houses the last Titan II rocket in its silo. It has been decommissioned and is now a museum. To keep the Russians happy, certain physical modifications have been made which can be verified via satellites orbiting overhead.
The Titan II was designed to launch a nuclear warhead in 58 seconds, but it was also the vehicle used to propel astronauts into space as part of the Gemini program.
The museum is authentic and includes a tour of the underground launch facility.]
Like me, this museum is a relic. I've been designing and continue to design sophisticated process control systems. The methods and technologies used in constructing this cold war deterrent are the same one's I was using in the 0960s. We've obviously progressed since then. However, I find these museums to be an interesting walk down memory lane.
