About this work
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. -- -- In this closeup of the Genesis spacecraft and Boeing Delta II launch vehicle, workers in rain gear check umbilicals on the launch tower. Genesis will be on a robotic NASA space mission to collect just 10 to 20 micrograms -- or the weight of a few grains of salt -- of solar wind, invisible charged particles that flow outward from the Sun -- and return them to Earth.
