EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph offers a glimpse into the past of the Blue Streak missile development program, specifically focusing on the French and German stages of the electrical mock-up at Stevenage in 1964. The Blue Streak was a British ballistic missile designed to carry a nuclear warhead and was capable of reaching targets in the Soviet Union. The electrical mock-up was an essential part of the development process, allowing engineers to test and refine the complex electrical systems required to power and guide the missile. The French and German stages of the Blue Streak missile are prominently displayed in the photograph. The French stage, located on the left, was responsible for the initial boost phase of the missile's flight, while the German stage, on the right, provided the sustaining power for the later stages of the flight. The intricate wiring and components of the electrical mock-up are evident, highlighting the advanced technology and engineering expertise required to bring such a complex project to fruition. Stevenage, located in Hertfordshire, England, was the site of the British Aircraft Corporation's missile and space vehicle division, where the Blue Streak missile was developed. This photograph provides a fascinating window into the past, offering a glimpse into the intricacies of missile technology during the height of the Cold War. The Blue Streak missile program was eventually cancelled in 1966 due to cost overruns and the emergence of more advanced missile technologies. However, this photograph remains an enduring reminder of the groundbreaking work that took place during this period in history.
