A brief history of Sandia

Labs marks 60th anniversary of exceptional service

Sandia began in 1945 as Z Division of Los Alamos Laboratory with a mission of consolidating nuclear weapon ordnance engineering activities. That group eventually moved to Kirtland Army Airfield in Albuquerque, N.M., a site chosen for its proximity to the military, an airfield, and space to grow. In 1949, the site separated from Los Alamos, and Sandia Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Western Electric, was created.
