REVIL ribbon cutting ceremony

From left: Dr. Andrew Williams, acting director of the Space Warfare Directorate; Mr. Michael Holthe, principal deputy assistant secretary of war for science and technology; Lt. Col. Matthew Miller, commander, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Albuquerque District; Amy Hall, Nuclear Enterprise Science and Technology Complex lead, Nuclear Mission Branch; and John Giddens, program manager, Infrastructure Management Branch, participate in a ribbon-cutting ceremony at Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico, March 24, 2026. The ceremony marked the opening of the Re-Entry Vehicle Integration Laboratory (REVIL), a purpose-built facility designed to address a longstanding gap in reentry vehicle integration and experimentation. REVIL enables the safe assembly, disassembly and integration of experimental systems, providing critical infrastructure to support next-generation research, reduce risk in technology development and transition and strengthen the Air Force Research Laboratory’s role in advancing credible, modernized deterrence capabilities in support of the nuclear enterprise.

711 HPW centrifuge simulates spaceflight for astronauts

The only human-rated centrifuge within the Department of Defense is shown at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, June 20, 2025. Five astronauts from NASA, the European Space Agency and the Canadian Space Agency completed centrifuge training, which simulates gravitational forces, or g-forces, experienced during launch and return to Earth. The Air Force Research Laboratory’s 711th Human Performance Wing owns and operates the centrifuge. (U.S. Air Force photo / Richard Eldridge)
