quote [ On the afternoon of August 16, 1956, 17-year-old Larry Kempton of Leona Valley was driving with his mother, Bernice, along Palmdale Boulevard, just west of 10th Street West, when a rocket suddenly exploded in front of their car. ]

Currently residing in Palmdale, and this is absolutely fascinating. There would be homes absolutely destroyed and definitely loss of life if this were to happen today.
