Supposed to land at White Sands, NM; however one of its alternate landing sites is the large playa south of Willcox, AZ just east of me, and Dugway Proving Ground, UT is the other alternate.

I think the Atlas IV is still using a Russian rocket motor. That doesn’t sound like a good idea, does it?

To be fair, ULA is only 50% Boeing, but Boeing picked ULA.

Atlas is the 737 of rockets.
