With 2 ASTC centers in Maryland, there are 1 center-to-center pairs; 1 are closer than 90 miles, and for those the passport is worthless. The closest pair: Discovery Station at Hagerstown and Maryland Science Center, 55 miles apart. The farthest: Discovery Station at Hagerstown and Maryland Science Center at 55 miles, still inside it.
