Launch facilities are specialized sites designed for the preparation and launching of spacecraft. These facilities typically include launch pads, control centers, and support buildings where engineers and technicians work to ensure that rockets and satellites are ready for their missions. The infrastructure at launch facilities is crucial for safety and efficiency, featuring systems for fueling, testing, and monitoring the launch vehicle. Notable examples of launch facilities include the Kennedy Space Center in Florida and the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, both of which have played significant roles in space exploration.
