Looks like I have to go out to Goldstone on the 10th. Damn.. I thought I was done with that when I switched jobs.

@Soramee_ It is more of a where than a what. From Los Angeles you drive about 2-3 hours into the California high desert. When you get to the middle of nowhere (aka Barstow, CA) between Los Angeles and Las Vegas, get off the highway and keep driving for half an hour or so until you reach the Fort Irwin army training facility. Then turn left and drive for another 45 minutes. (If you still have cell signal then you haven't gone far enough... the place is purposefully built as far as possible from anything resembling civilization in order to avoid stray RF interference.) Quite some time after you lose cell coverage but a bit before you fall off the edge of the world you will have arrived at Goldstone. Assuming you haven't been flattened by a tank or run off the road by a herd of wild burro first. Watch out for coyotes , tarantulas , and scorpions if you leave your car. Not to mention heatstroke!

@Ohayotaku Yes, though without the Banthas or Jawas. There may or may not be sarlacc out there somewhere. I have never been motivated to explore much beyond the inhabited (and air-conditioned) parts of the complex but there are antlions to be found in the sandy areas nearby.
