refnum=85002811The Spacecraft Magnetic Test Facility at the Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland was built in 1966 to allow the evaluation of magnetic movement in spacecraft. The building is constructed on non-magnetic materials and contains a magnetic coil system that allows the cancellation of the Earth's magnetic field. This unique building was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1985 [cite web|url=http://www.marylandhistoricaltrust.net/nr/NRDetail.aspx?HDID=941&FROM=NRNHLList.aspx|title=Maryland Historical Trust|date=2008-06-12|work= National Register of Historic Places:Properties in Prince George's County|publisher=Maryland Historical Trust] .
