The Quebec-One Missile Alert Facility, also known as Quebec-01 or Q-01, located north of Cheyenne, Wyoming, was a United States Air Force Minuteman II ICBM launch control facility operated by the 400th Missile Squadron constructed in 1962. The facility was converted to operate the Peacekeeper ICBM in 1986. The facility was deactivated in 2005 and turned over to Wyoming State Parks in December 2017. The facility was opened to the public in August 2019 as the Quebec 01 Missile Alert Facility State Historic Site after restoration work done by the United States Air Force.
