Except that it can be acquired anywhere. One just has to spend a little bit of time at a location and launch some rockets there. None of us ever go to totally new and unfamiliar launch fields all that often. We all do almost all of our launching at a restricted number of sites. Over time the peerless technology that we were all born with gathers the high quality data and performs the ultra-sophisticated multivariate analyses that enable us to fly our rockets in them with ever-improving skill.
