The present day Henry House is a replica of the home occupied by Judith Henry during the First Battle of Manassas. The original house was completely destroyed by Confederate troops the day after the Battle of First Manassas. Henry Hill was named after Dr. Issac Henry. During the battle the house was inhabited by Judith Carter Henry, the widow of Dr. Henry. After Confederate and Union soldiers began entering the house on the contested property, the children of Judith Henry attempted to remove her from harm's way. But he 85 year old Judith Henry was in poor physical condition due to advanced age and requested to be taken back to her home and placed in her bed.
During the battle, I Battery (Ricketts' Battery) 1st U. S. Artillery had moved 6 Parrot guns onto Henry Hill close to the Henry House. Confederate sharpshooters in and around the Henry House began firing on the artillerymen as they unhitched the artillery from horses. Captain Ricketts gave the order to fire into the house and Judith Carter Henry was mortally wounded when a artillery round ripped through the house and removed part of a foot and caused several injuries which caused her death later that day.

The Apollo Station has a 26-meter diameter X-Y mount antenna that was built in 1966 and named for its support of the Apollo manned moon mission program. Today the Station supports unmanned earth- orbiting satellites, including Polar, Wind, Geotail, the Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) and the Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer Earth Probe (TOMS EP).

Goldstone is one of three complexes around the world known as the Deep Space Network (DSN) established to provide the ability to communicate with spacecraft; not only in orbit around the earth, but also in the farther reaches of our solar system. The Deep Space Network complexes, placed 120° apart, provide constant communication with spacecraft as the Earth rotates. In determining the exact position for the site in California, a remote location, free from radio signal interference, was needed. The remote location of the Mojave Desert in California, near the old mining town of Goldstone, was determined to be an optimal location and in 1958 the first antenna was built. Facilities near Madrid, Spain and Canberra, Australia complete the Deep Space Network providing 360 degree coverage for spacecraft tracking.
