There is a launch of a Minuteman III ICBM test rocket set for Wednesday August 13. Demand we stop testing nuclear weapon delivery systems.
This test ICBM goes to the Kwajalein atoll in the Marshall Islands, following a ballistic trajectory over the Pacific Ocean. The exact launch time is still to be announced. see http://www.spac earchive.info/v afbsked.htm
for latest launch information. Because it is a workday, and because we do not know the exact time of the launch the vigil and peace protest will start at 5 am at the front gate of Vandenberg Space Command/AFB. The protest will end at 7 am.
This protest is sponsored by the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom and the Global Network Against Weapons and Nuclear Power in Space.
