    A lot of homeless mainly
    Cari R.

    There's a lot of like homeless people in there! I would say majority. More than regular visitors. I was kinda scared. I didn't see any security guard. There where 2 nonservice dogs with no leash. One was a pitbull!! Its ghetto in there . I know they need somewhere to be but, dang. I just didn't feel safe.See my pictures

    Cookbooks galore and kids books
    Eunice T M.

    They offer great kids programs and events here for the family. This library also has a great selection of cookbooks and recipe books. It also has a really good kids section with books for all ages. I come here often with my grandchildren and they love it although some of the homeless people are dangerous. They shouldn't be in there carrying on especially around children. Palmdale needs to do more for them.

    It's a nice quiet library and one of our favorite places to visit once a week. We attended a children's reading yesterday morning 10-10:30am at the park near the library... decent turnout n the story readers were animated n great!! There were also Spanish n ASL lessons incorporated in the songs n readings. It was a half hour event, kids were engaged, the staff n volunteers passed out water, snacks, gift bags, toys as well as information on reading programs n future events... we truly appreciate these awesome folks. Very kind n dedicated employees.

    AVC is an excellent school to go to. There are a lot of clubs and on-campus activities that makes…read moremeeting new people a breeze. If you want to transfer to a four-year university, there is a program that helps you navigate through all the courses you need. The transfer counselors care about the students and are more than happy to help them. Their goal is to get you to a university. The student service programs that AVC have is expertly helpful. They have a Learning Center, which is one of the most beneficial areas for students to achieve. There are FREE tutoring services for almost all the courses. From art to engineering, there is most likely a tutor. If not, you can request for one to be found. The only part about AVC that I don't like are the restroom facilities. They are always dirty, and sometimes a majority of toilets don't work or are broken in some way. They are also usually out of soap too, so I have to keep a bottle of hand sanitizer with me. All in all, Antelope Valley College is an outstanding school and is a great place to start if you want to further your education.

    Let me start by saying the campus is very nice and clean! The admissions and financial aid staff,…read moreon the other hand, is pretty much useless. They are decently friendly, but it seems like no one at the desk is ever authorized to actually do anything aside from taking your info down and saying they'll reach out to you (no one ever reaches out, by the way, shocker). I've visited over 8-10 times in the last 5 months, and the "higher-ups" are always out of the office or in meetings--every single time. I applied in August 2025 and it took 2 weeks and 3 visits just for them to even find my application because it supposedly got "filed into spam." Most CCs take 48 hours MAX. Because of that "spam incident," my financial aid was severely delayed. Even though I'm a California native, they flagged me as a non-resident and said they needed my official high school transcripts to prove it. Contacting LAUSD for transcripts is a nightmare and takes 3-4 months, but the admissions supervisor gave me a verbal green light to take my Fall classes anyway. She promised they would backdate the waiver and clear the non-resident tuition once the transcripts arrived. I finally brought my transcripts in today, and now they're saying it's 50/50 if the dean will even honor that since the Fall semester is already over. To make it worse, the dean has been out for the last 2 days and they had no idea when she'd even be back. They refused to even schedule an in person appointment with her for me. I even offered to set it for this Friday or even weeks out and told them they could just call to cancel if she wasn't in, and they still said no. If someone is going to be out indefinitely, they need to bring in someone else to fill in and handle their responsibilities! I understand things and emergencies happen, but there is still business to be handled. Now they're saying they can guarantee Spring will be cleared, but I can't enroll in any classes until the $500 Fall balance is paid. What sense does that make?? Had I known this would happen, I never would've enrolled for Fall, but I trusted the supervisor's word. I'm beyond disappointed. The staff is friendly, but they need a new chain of command if the bosses are always gone. It shouldn't be this hard to better my future. I'm now pursuing enrollment at another college because I can't deal with this faulty system anymore. Advice to future students: save yourself the headache and explore other schools if you can. If you do happen to end up here DO NOT take verbal promises here. Get everything time-stamped and in writing or you'll end up stuck with a bill you weren't expecting.

When people think about NASA, they tend to lean towards the space aspect fo the agency, but at its core the first "A" stands for Aeronautics. NASA has been at the forefront of everything aviation since its earliest incarnation (NACA). From research into basic flight to the exotic, it drives innovation that we the public may never see but experience every time we fly. The center is involved in many ongoing projects such as the Lockheed Martin X-56, X-57 Maxwell, X-59 QueSST etc. They also as other reviews noted the home for SOFIA. SOFIA is a heavily modified 747 SP that houses a huge airborne telescope. This way it avoids all of the moisture int he atmosphere and get better images. While we may never know the impact of these projects, its history is staggering The Bell X-1: The first supersonic aircraft that Chuck Yeager rode into immortality , NB-52B aka Balls 8 (see my separate review) the mothership of the jet age. Dropped so many experimental craft its legendary. The F-15B ACTIVE and just about every X Plane ever made. I could go on for hours. The portion of the center on Edwards AFB is generally off limits unless you have actual business on the base and there does not appear to be any tours of the Plant 42 location. However, the plane spotting in the area is fantastic and if you are lucky you can catch many of the aircraft conducting flight operations.

From the NASA website: "SOFIA, the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy, is the largest airborne observatory in the world, capable of making observations that are impossible for even the largest and highest ground-based telescopes. During its lifetime, SOFIA also will inspire the development of new scientific instrumentation and foster the education of young scientists and engineers." https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/SOFIA/index.html
