Cape Canaveral AFS Launch Complex 22 (LC-22) is a disused launch pad at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station on Merritt Island , Cape Canaveral in Florida , USA . It was used from the late 1950s, like the sister ramp LC-21, for the development of the Goose and Mace rockets.

After that, the launch pad was no longer used and was officially shut down in the early 1970s.
