History

During its early years as a military station, the island was owned by the Coast Guard. The United States Navy took it over in 1941 and turned it into what it is today. In 1958, NASA joined this site as well, after absorbing NACA. This is how the two institutions got to work together. The results coming from NASA’s tests and research operations are also used by the experts at SCSC Wallops Island. This tight collaboration has seriously contributed at the success rate of both these institutions. Over the years, 19 different satellites have been launched from this base and 16 of them were actually kept in space. During the ’80s, after being mostly run by the NASA, the island got a small place for the returning US Navy as well, with more personnel and equipments.
