Evolution of launch sites, from Atlas D to Minuteman, is described, illustrating most notable developments in missilry which affected civil engineering design; storable and solid fuels; blast detection and closures; soil motion prediction; guidance systems considered, with development of missile-contained, all inertial guidance systems making it more economical to harden and disperse launch facilities; in-silo launch.
