About this work
VANDENBERG AFB, Calif. – Members of the IRIS and Pegasus launch teams working in a hangar at Vandenberg work connect the separation ring for NASA's IRIS spacecraft, short for Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph. The separation system will push IRIS away from an Orbital Pegasus XL rocket when the spacecraft reaches its proper orbit after launch.
