From Malta To The Moon

Join Malta Town Historian Paul Perreault for a historical presentation about the Malta Rocket Test Station that took place right in our own backyard of Luther Forest! The Test Station was constructed in 1945 and ran through the 1960s. Rocket engines were assembled and put through stationary ground tests. These rockets powered some of the first satellites and missiles in America including Vanguard, Vega, Discoverer and Skybolt. This is a fascinating glimpse into our town's history!
