More about Colorado Springs

In 1871 General William J. Palmer, the builder of the Denver and Rio Grande Railway, founded Colorado Springs as a resort. Originally named Fountain Colony, the community was renamed to better evoke its resort aspirations. The planned community incorporated in 1876. After the discovery of gold at nearby Cripple Creek in 1891, the city grew into a commercial center. Its hotels, proximity to the mountains, and numerous hot springs made Colorado Springs a popular destination for wealthy tourists and people who used the springs for medicinal reasons. Following a trip to the top of Pikes Peak in 1893, Katharine Lee Bates wrote the words to the patriotic anthem "America the Beautiful."

Concentrated around Colorado Springs are headquarters and operational units of military space commands: Peterson Air Force Base, headquarters of the North American Air Defense Command and the United States Space Command; Cheyenne Mountain Air Force Base, a hollowed-out mountain southwest of downtown Colorado Springs, housing the control center for detection of aircraft, missile, or space attack against North America; and Falcon Air Force Base, which controls the U.S. Department of Defense satellite system.
