About this work
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. -- In the Payload Hazardous Servicing Facility, workers check the mating of the Genesis spacecraft with the upper stage of the Delta rocket. Genesis is 7.5 feet (2.3 meters) long and 6.6 feet (2 meters) wide, with a wingspan of solar array 26 feet (7.9 meters) tip to tip. Genesis will be on a robotic NASA space mission to catch a wisp of the raw material of the Sun and return it to Earth with a spectacular mid-air helicopter capture.
