About Edwards AFB

Welcome to Edwards Air Force Base, located on the fringes of the Mojave Desert of California. The base is the second largest air force base in the entire United States and features the longest runway in the country. It sits on 301,000 acres and hosts around 2,500 personnel. Perhaps most famous for the late Chuck Yeager’s flight that broke the sound barrier, Edwards AFB also saw the first landing of the Space Shuttle.
