Standing on the top of Kitt Peak (50 miles SW of Tucson) at night
during the 60's and 70's you could see a dozen or so Titan sites on
the surrounding desert floor. They had a couple of green lights.
If you saw these lights turn red, you knew it was time to duck.
The road to Kitt Peak passed within a few hundred feet of one site.
Maybe this is the "museum"?

There are other Titan silos but they've been converted to things like
research labs, homes, observatories, etc scattered throughout the US but
none are an actual "missile site" anymore other than the one you speak of.
Is this site a government museum, or a privately run one? Do they actually
have a Titan in it?
I've been all over the boneyard at Davis-Monthan throughout the years while
still active AF but didn't know there was a Titan site anywhere around.
