1. Title: "A Leap Forward in Military Technology: The Martin TM-76 Mace Missile in Flight, 1958" 2. Description: This historic photograph captures the moment of flight for a Martin TM-76 Mace surface-to-surface missile as it soars through the skies over northwest New Mexico. Launched from Holloman Air Force Base Missile Development Center on May 10, 1958, the missile is seen here in transit to Wendover Air Force Base, Utah. The Martin TM-76 Mace was a significant development in military technology, marking a new era in long-range, nuclear-capable missile systems. 3. Background: The Martin TM-76 Mace was an American surface-to-surface ballistic missile developed by the Martin Marietta Corporation. With a range of approximately 1,200 miles, the Mace was designed to deliver nuclear warheads to targets deep within enemy territory. The missile was a key component of the United States' strategic defense arsenal during the Cold War. 4. Launch and Transport: In this image, the Mace missile is seen leaving Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico, bound for Wendover Air Force Base in Utah. The missile was transported by a specialized aircraft, likely a C-124 Globemaster II or a similar model, which can be seen in the background of the photograph. 5. Significance: The successful launch and transportation of the Martin TM-76 Mace missile marked a major milestone in the development of long-range, nuclear-capable missile systems. This photograph serves as a reminder of the technological advancements and innovations that shaped the second half of the 20th century. 6. Technical Details: Date: May 10, 1958. Location: Holloman Air Force Base, New Mexico, to Wendover Air Force Base, Utah. Equipment: Martin TM-76 Mace surface-to-surface missile, transport aircraft (likely a C-124 Globemaster II). 7.
