Huntsville, Alabama is the first town to be recognized in Alabama, achieving official town-hood in 1811. Despite this, the city recognizes the year 1805, the year of the arrival of John Hunt as its year of birth. John Hunt was a veteran of the Revolutionary War and was the first White settler in the area. It was also temporarily the capital of Alabama when it was first incorporated into the United States. Historically associated with cotton production and railroad industries, Huntsville also played a major role in America's space programs, earning it the nickname, "The Rocket City." Its space program legacy is celebrated at the US Space and Rocket Center located here.
Huntsville's association with rockets continues to this day with the US Army Aviation and Missile Command, based at Redstone Arsenal, and NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center based in the area. Visit Huntsville today and let Local Tom be your local guide to this amazing city.
