Descend 31 ft down the elevator to the underground launch control room, where missileers waited for the launch commands that never came. Tours take about 45 minutes and are limited to six people. Tickets for tours can be reserved up to 90 days in advance; there is no same-day availability. Space is very limited and can book up almost immediately in the summer, so plan your trip early!

The visitor center includes exhibits and a park orientation video which places the Minuteman in historic context.
Delta-09 Missile Silo
This missile silo, like 150 others across the state, once housed a fully operational Minuteman Missile, bearing a 1.2-megaton nuclear warhead. There is no underground access; the door has been welded and fitted with a glass roof, with an unarmed missile placed inside. A cellphone-guided tour is available, and an interpreter is sometimes on site in the morning.
