Huntsville is the most populous city in the US state of Alabama; long known as the "Rocket City", it has a deep-rooted military presence [1] with a concentration of defense research.[2][3]
“Huntsville is the biggest fucking deal on the planet that you have never heard of. [...] Huntsville is the Silicon Valley of government national security technology and intelligence community technology and aerospace technology. [...] We are number three, on the first strike launch list. If first strike happens, three targets, Huntsville will be one of them.”

History
Major growth in Huntsville took place in the decades following World War II. During the war, the U.S. Army established Redstone Arsenal in the vicinity, with a chemical weapons plant and related facilities. After the war, additional research was conducted at Redstone Arsenal on rockets, followed by adaptations for space exploration. NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, the US Army Aviation and Missile Command, the FBI's operational support headquarters and most recently the US Space Command, all were sited at Redstone Arsenal.
